Thanks for the advice guys.
So what I’m hearing is that the 29.97 footage converted to 23.976 via Compressor will be superior or equal in quality to 23.976 converted to 29.97 by adding pulldown? Or at least that whatever difference in quality there is, in your opinion, is overcome in importance but other issues.
Based on your advice, I’m now thinking that the best idea would be to continue working at 23.976 until the end, at which point I’ll get my assistant to convert and eye-match the 29.97 material… which means I get to edit in “stutter-vision” for the next few weeks! …it’s always a shame when we have to waste time on this kind of stuff isn’t it!
