Bryan Jacobson Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Is there any down converter that convert CineAlta HD 24P to DV 24p for offline editing? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not quite sure on the converter, are you talking about SD DVC PRO 24p? You certainly can downconvert HDCAM from the deck to 29.97 SDI and then convert your 29.97 offline edl to 24p for online using cinema tools or another edl conversion program. It mostly depends what destination deck you are using and what formats it will accept. Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted October 26, 2004 Premium Member Share Posted October 26, 2004 Yes, you'd probably downconvert 24P/1080 to NTSC (60i/480) with a 3:2 pulldown, then remove the pulldown in editing to work in 24P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest twist Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Thanks for the suggestions, but I'm living a country with PAL TV system, it's hard to find NTSC recorder. Actually all questions I listed on this forum is about 24P offline editing, even though I asked for advice of 25p HD transfering to film. Thanks to all who tried to help me. twist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted October 26, 2004 Premium Member Share Posted October 26, 2004 Hi, If you're in a PAL country it's all easy - just shoot everything at 25, and postproduction becomes a lot easier. Your theatrical release will be very slightly slower, but that's a lesser evil than having your DVD run slightly fast and well worth it for the ease of use in post.

Beats me, we got the old 60hz problem here in the us, PAL has it easy. Good luck, sorry not as familiar with PAL HD, especially the phenomenon of PAL 24P. Maybe David or Phil can help but I'm a lttle confused by your wording. Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
