30 fps vs 24 fps in premiere at DVinfo.net

Jonathan Grant · September 18th, 2006, 05:26 PM

Our footage is in 24 fps. Does it matter if the premiere project we import it into is 24fps? The only option it shows is 29 fps. Is there a way to make it 24 fps? Or does it not matter?

Jonathan,

Yes, it does matter. What version of Premiere are you using. With PPro 1.5 I have found bringin 24PA footage into a standard 29.97 timeline, it removed the pulldown and then inserted a full repeat frame every five frames. Nasty.

There should be some Panasonic 24p project presets when creating a new project.

Yeah, 1.5.

When I go to custom and try to drop down the frame rate 29 is the only option available. :-/

I couldn't find any presets with 24 fps

Jonathan,

When you go to New Project, there should be a screen with folders on the left and settings on the right. There should be some NTSC and PAL folders, but also Panasonic 24p. No?

Okay, I see Panasonic. But we have the Matrox bundle thing that we need to use. And under Panasonic the Matrox stuff doesn't work, and under Matrox it only has 29.xxx
