Re: FCX and VIDEO PLAYBACK options...

Bret,

I'm curious why you're shooting 24p.

Is it going to film? Are you seeking for smaller web files? Are you looking for time effects by mapping 24p to 30i for NTSC playback? Is there something about the film cadence that you like aesthetically?

Just genuinely curious as to why non-film destination producers (and I have no idea if that describes you or not!) keep working at 24p so much when so little content actually gets transferred onto celluloid these days.

Seems odd, but I realize that there are a wide variety of reasons possible from client specifications to personal preferences, and was just interested in which of the many yours might be?

And for anyone else reading this and similarly working in 24p - why was that your choice?

Thanks.
