Hey Michael,
Hope this isn’t the question that shouldn’t be asked.
When I convert to a ProRes codec during ingest, will I still be maintaining my distinct 60FPS attribute of the EX1 footage? It is ultra critical that I have 60 distinct different frames to work with to accomplish the slow-mo effect I am going to execute.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I wold love to shoot at a higher hi-def mode but the 60FPS on the EX1 is limited to 720P. The slow motion effect I need to achieve requires 60 FPS. The FX1 was used to shoot the already existing footage at 29.97FPS. The bed is made. I must sleep in it. I can only change the pillow cases and comforter.RE: Ingesting
I will be importing from the two different cameras and am only familiar with FCP 5.1.4. Are you saying with 6.0.6 I can: 1) capture and transfer with the same ProRes clip setting? 2) The end result will be the same size/ratio clips for both media?Jared

Appreciate it Jeremy. I will give it a go. Thanks for your time and expertise.

Hey Jeremy,
So if I make the QUICKTIME movie and deselect ‘Make move self contained’, am I essentially making a mirror copy with all of the original attributes albeit a single clip? And at this point I can deinterlace the single movie length clip?

HI Jeremy,
I may not be making myself clear. Within Final Cut, and after selecting ‘in and out’ points, I select FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE. After this file is created it bears a FC icon and is only recognizable by Final Cut (unless converted). These movie files are generally very large files and I am assuming uncompressed. Let me know if I am good up this point.If I decide to use compressor, what codec should I use? 8-bit, or 10-bit uncompressed? The main thing here is that I end up with a file that I can layer on itself with some effects and that can also be de-interlaced as well.

Hey Jeremy,
In other words, do I have to go into FC and apply de-interlace to each individual clip?….or can I make a quicktime movie and apply ‘de-interlace’ to the single quicktime movie? Thanks for your time man.

Hey Jeremy,
Thanks for helping out here. Could you read my initial post and let me know what you think? Thanks.

Hi Dave,
The status window suggests a 4 hour rendering period. I know that it is usually always much shorter than that as the mac and FCP expedite through the task, but it still seems it will take a good half hour or so. The data is only :30. Although it is hi def, does this sound like a normal time estimate for such a procedure?I do have quite a bit of layers and graphics (which is why I wanted to quicktime movie the project as soon as possible).

Check that Dave, the RED render bar deployed on the video side only. I was looking at a blown up portion of the timeline when I erroneously reported that both video AND audio were effected.

Hey Dave,
I went into the ‘Sequence’ tab and changed the ‘dominance’ form ‘odd’ to ‘none’. Immediately the entire time line (video and audio) went to RED render band. I understand why, but am wondering if this render procedure will be a one time process notwithstanding future edits I will make and if the shift in fields will effect any editing I have already executed. In other words is there a benefit to changing the field ‘order’ prior to editing?By not having to de-interlace, you assert that I should (in theory) have better/cleaner results when I add my composite layer ‘overlay’ to pump up the darks and the mids. Is that a correct assumption?
