Re: [Avid-L2] Shooting specs

 

Thanks guys for answering.

I think Bouke's point is that shooting 24P in general is dopey
unless you have European partners/markets or theater release in
mind. And an interesting point it is. I guess my question would
be how much of the "film look" that people in the States like is
the cadence of 3:2 pull down and not really 24Pness? It's the way
folks have watched film on TV in the States forever.

To answer Dom's question, the project is talking like they want
to edit in HD and not in an offline/online model. Does DNxHD220
make that a bit of a bear? (I personally still like offline and
having all the materials for an hour doc on a one terabyte drive
that I can walk out the door with.)

Thanks again,

D.
