2. Edit at 29.97 with pulldown added to the second camera.
3. Find a Teranex to do a 30-24 conversion for the final master. Forget a software approach is you want the best results.– Oliver”
Yes, Oliver is right on, here. Hardware conversion is best. I spend a lot of time going from 29.97 to 25, and it is far cleaner. You could use Teranex to convert 29.97 source material to 24 to edit in 24, but if you can’t do that first, definately edit at 29.97. Pulldown from the 24 to 29.97 works well.
A quick note: When editing at 29.97 for 24, be very careful about fast flash cuts and very quick inserts. Try not to make any cuts involving movement under 10 frames, and definitely not under 8. These might look stunning at 29.97, but fall apart when you remove a fifth of their frames.

Based on your answers, I think Avid is a very good choice for you. I would say the next version of Premiere is as well, though a lot of this depends on how the whole CC thing shakes out.

Will do. The Dude abides.

[John Davidson] “I originally said mac pro, but then I revised it to say macbook pro. Haswell processors for notebooks are due to be released on June 4th. This would apply to basically all MacBooks.
“Naw. I caught you after you made the change. I’ve been thinking about a MBP, and didn’t know this was a possibility. I thought Tim Cook said, “Cool yer jets, y’all.” Well, or words to the effect. But I now read there are investor types saying otherwise. What’s a dude to do?

[John Davidson] “Oh man, if Haswell processors come out with updated macbook pros in 2 weeks you’re gonna be so mad! Just an FYI, I think you can return a mac within 30 days if they release an update in that window of time.
“Is this something you anticipate? I thought we weren’t seeing anything until Fall at the earliest.

I’d love to see an MC grove 🙂
“Ah, yes. It’s truly amazing. They grow a full four or five feet off the ground, like big berry bushes, except instead of berries, the fruit are little USB sticks.

and I fecking loovvve it.”Yeah, I cut some promos on it earlier this year and quit enjoyed it. 6 was, I think, a bigger step. 7 is more of a really nice polish.
I’m just curious. Have you ever played with MC again? Once I got into the grove, I really began to enjoy it.

Don’t you mean “a mere two fortnights?” Or did somebody shave off the last third of May and the front porch of June and not tell me?

[Bill Davis] “Those first six months were difficult here. So forgive me if I bask in a tiny bit of satisfaction knowing that what I argued from the beginning is being at least a little bit born out in the fullness of time.”
Sure, why not.
