24A -- Can you finish in DigitBeta first?

I'm planning to shoot in advanced on the 100B, but in case the money for the film blow-up falls through, I still want to be able to finish my film.

Does anyone know if you can finish a 24 advanced show on, say, DigiBeta, or any other tape formats?

Do you have to add back the pulldown to maintain sync?

Thanks very much.
 
Hi mate, sorry I am not fully catching what you are asking here:

Sounds like your saying you will run our of money for the blw up and cant shoot the rest on the 100b?

Can you clarify that point first?
 
No, that wasn't it. I should clarify.

I want to eventually blow-up to film. But before I do, I want to output my finished 24 Advanced timeline onto tape. Are there any tape formats that don't work with 24 Advanced? I read an article by Andrew Lau on Ken Stone's website that Digibeta has been known to cause problems.
 
Actually, never mind. I figured it out.

You can't put 24pA back to tape as 24pA. You've got to put it back as 24p Normal. FCP can do this on the fly from 23.98fps timeline, or decklink and kona cards can do it too over SDI.
