  • Creating 24P graphics for DVX100 footage

    Posted by Buddy Unidas on July 24, 2006 at 5:58 am

    Hi all,

    I’m doing graphics to be laid over some footage shot on a DVX-100A. I’ve done some preliminary tests and most of the composites I’ve made don’t really blend well with the 24P footage (they always end up video-ish and a bit blurry when I bring them back into FCP). What are the proper settings to use when creating graphics for these cameras? Should I use the posterize time effect to 24fps? Any help is appreciated. Thanks yall.

    are you using a 24p timeline?

    I had a similar problem but I was using a standard FCP timeline…(29.97 fps)
    AE has a conform to framerate in the interpret footage dialog box. (conform footage 24p to 29.97 do the grafics…then export the grafics with alpha into FCP)

    I’m not sure this is what you are looking for.

    hope this helps

    Thanks a bunch Dave. Unfortunately, I’m new to all of this 24p stuff and I shot everything at 24p and not 24p advanced. I probably should have did my homework BEFORE I went on tour and shot over 45 hours of footage 🙁 Are there any 3rd party aps you can recommend that will take the 3:2 pulldown from my 24p [non-advaneced] footage or am I just totally screwed? Thanks again for the help. It’ll be sure to come in handy on my next shoot(s).

    Ciao,
    Bud

    OK I’m gonna do some tests… Thanks again for all your help. I’m sure it’ll save me a bunch of time figuring it out between AE and FCP and Cinema Tools.

    Ciao,
