  Settings for Movie, 720 24P

  Posted by Benjamin Tubb on January 29, 2007 at 1:04 am

  I just got my new HVX200, and it’s an amazing camera. We are about to start production on a student film, and we want to film it in 720 HD, 24P. But that’s not as simple as I’d like it to be, and I’m new to HD (All my work to date has been NTSC DV). So, how do I do this?

  1)What’s the difference between 720p24P and 720p24PN, and what are the advantages and disadvantages to each?

  2)I remember there being some rule about 720 HD only playing in 59.94FPS? If that’s true, then what does shooting in 24P do?

  3)Does changing the frame rate mess with the audio at all (i.e. Am I going to have to change some settings on that?)?

  4)I’m going to do all my editing in Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0, and my current plan is to buy Raylight. Is this the best way to go for my situation (extremely low on cash)?

  5)Is there any special process to importing 24P video? And what do I do with the pulldown and such?

  6)If I’m going to bring a clip into After Effects, is there something else I’m going to have to do with it?

  7)Are there any tips and tricks I should know before we ’embark’ on this journey?

  8)Are there any ‘gotchas’ I should know?

  I’ve read almost the entire user’s manual, and while it has explained some things, it isn’t very clear on others. I’m thinking that hearing these things from actual people will help.

  Thanks,
  Ben Tubb
