Mastering 23.98 and delivering 29.97i “to the frame”

[Azed Kettani]

Hi,

I have a similar question although it doesn’t have to be to the frame.

I’m editing at 23.98 in FCP 7 and the final program needs to have a duration of 46m10s at 59.94i.

Does anybody know how I can calculate how long my edit should be on my 23.98 timeline?

Thanks very much!

This is easy. Just have the timecode display show you the time at 29.97. It will then calculate your sequence according to 29.97 DF.

Click on the TC window above the PROGRAM monitor…choose SEQUENCE>TIMECODE>30DF>MAS
