Hm OK, still looks like my best option is shooting 23.97. If I can just find out about the shutter speed settings... Thanks for that though!

When mixing for features, they listen to a full mix of all elements, but all of the dialogue, sound effects and music is recorded into separate 'groups' ('bussed' if you will). It can be done by premixing too, but often times it's just routing parts of the mix to specific outputs/busses.

If you were to cut a TV spot for the movie, you'd use picture, dialogue stem, and fx stem. If you needed a German language version, you'd keep music and sfx, but replace the dialogue.

So, just in case it can't - opposite question - if I shoot 25p, is there a way to output 24p if we go to a film print *without* slowing 4% (presumably Bluray supports 25p natively, although not sure if US Bluray players will play 25p discs)?
