FCP X! 1111 Responses

I am looking for some tips with FCP.
I have a long sequence (1 hour widdled down from 9) in FCP X.
It was shot on a 7D and I converted the frame rate from 60FPS to 30FPS but I've recently been informed 24FPS would look a lot better.
Can I do that without starting over the editing process?
(On a sidenote I am looking to download some high res loops of VHS grain - if that exists - for overlays)

If you still have FC7 use cinetools to convert 60->24 but remember what zoo zoo said....

60 - 30 = 50% of the speed.... what exactly are you wanting to do by making them 24 fps?...
You can change the clips no problem but they will be longer on the timeline. So if it is sunk to music after one second or so it will drift out. you will need to slip all your edits.

what?!??
24P looks different, sometimes worse than 30p. Depends on what you're shooting and what look you're aiming for....
24p is more "film-like" but also is mercilessly harsh on subject movement or camera movement, you've got to move the camera slower and smoother or you get this weird "Jitter" effect. That's why lots of "action movies" are full of cuts and tight editing but actually not much drastic camera movement or subject movement... watch carefully and you will see....
30p is slightly more forgiving of motion, not much, 60P is what sports are often shot in... and 30P has slightly more of a "video" look but I really don't think you should "redo your project" ....
shutter speed also has an influence... but you've got to just actually try things and watch stuff really carefully, not just read about it...
