Converting 30p to 24p
So through a series of stupid mistakes, I’m tasked with fixing a project that is part 24p, part 30p. The project is required to be in 24p, and now that it has a chunk of 30p material, it’s be useful to know how to convert that back without losing quality.
I know there’s supposed to be something about a pulldown that takes what’s really 30p material anyway and turns it into 24p, but nothing I can find seems to help (unless it’s “using Twixtor”)Is there anything I can do?

No: pulldown is for putting 24P footage into 30i playback. Or, for ‘extracting’ 24P footage (that was originally 24P) out of 30i footage. You’re in a situation of squeezing 30 frames into 24. So, yes, get Twixtor…
There’s some good info about pulldown HERE.

Do you need Twixtor for this? You have more frames than you need. So all you need to do is get rid of the extra frames and you should be good. The motion blur will not be exact same between true 24p and 30p converted to 24p. I would just do this in Premiere.
