[Avid-L2] 30i Ntsc footage to 1080p25 - advice needed

 

Advise needed.

I have som 30i NTSC MJpeg (.avi container, I believe it is lower field dominance) footage and I need the footage in a 1080p25 project.
What would you suggest is the best way to handle the footage within Avid. 


My best result so far is the following, but I am a bit unsure if I treat the frame conversion and deinterlacing the best way.


- amalinking in a 1080p30, adjusting the source settings to correct the aspect, applied lower field dominance. Transcoded.
copied the bin into my 1080p25 project, added the clip to a sequence, promoted the motion effect, applied source to interlaced and output to progressive. 


I do not plan to online this particular footage in the end and I would prefer not to make new master clips before ingesting into Avid - here by meant an ordinary framerate conversion and a proper deinterlace. This is due the quality of the footage, the amount of it, and as usual the economy of the feature.
The end product is a feature documentary on DCP (25fps).

I hope some of you can guide me wether I am on the right path, or if I should completely rethink the process.


Thanks
