  • rendering to true 24 from 23.98

    Posted by Charles Haine on January 18, 2013 at 12:04 am

    Generally when working in a 24 frame project, I have a choice for “set frame rate” in the delivery room to either 23.976 or 24.

    However, with my current project (mostly RED media) I only have the option for 23.976; no option for 24 anymore.

    Anyway I can get it back? I’ve been through the manual and every setting I can find and it stubbornly just sits there, no option for 24.

    Sometimes the FX guys want 24.

    thanks,
    Charles

    If you are giving a file sequence such as dpx or tif (usually the case for vfx) the 23.98 / 24 flag does not matter really as long as they are set to 24 workspace on their end. If you’re sending a wrapped file like QT different story.

    Also if you are rendering a Quciktime you can use FCP-7’s Cinema Tools to open the clip and “conform” the framerate to 24.00 this is an instant change as Cinema Tools just changes the info in the clip that tells it what framerate to play at.

    What Robert said. In addition there is an app called qt change, which is not expensive, and allows you to do that and much more to QuickTime files.

    Just a word of warning, QTChange has what’s probably the worst user interface in the history of the Mac. But it’s still pretty useful, and it’s worth the 25 dollars I paid for it. Just don’t expect it to be intuitive. Or pretty. Or sane. Or not headache inducing.

    Super helpful info; much appreciated.

    So, I render out my 23.98 project to DPX and encode it to MXF for DPX and it’ll stay in sync with the audio, provided they’ve conformed their audio from 23.98 to 24 as well?

    Awesome.
