5dmkii - some faves on vimeo

I agree. Terrific. Especially the B&W one.

I had a look on some stuff from you Mattias, filmmakers gang poster had told me about. It seems interesting. Do you have furthermore?

Yet as far as the 24p conversion is concerned, what would it be your best bet? Lee's retiming method? It doesn't seem bad this 'drop every 5th frame algorithm', at least, on both above-posted ones...
 
So if Vimeo does the conversion to 24P so well there should be a software way to do this in post and the 30P dilema should be moot. Correct?
 
they don't do it well, they just do it. drop your 30p clip on a 24p timeline in any nle and that's what you get, or simply open the clip in quicktime player and export using 24 fps. when people talk about the problems converting they mean to get better results, but if you don't need that it's not a problem whatsoever. sorry if this hasn't been made clear before.

I asked to Barry Green. He said Lee's solution is very good. I have worries about audio though. Re-timing audio too?
 
there are still some motion blur that gives away it's 30p look. I doubt there's any clean workaround. With variable shutter speed getting in the way, you wont get a better feel than a native 24p can give.

Although I would love to take credit, all 'my' method consists of is using After Effects built in time stretch (ie: I did nothing !).

Dropping every 5th frame might look ok on Vimeo, but in the real world it will look awful.

Are you saying Vimeo just slows clips down from 30p to 24p ? (never really paid attention to whether clips are running slower?)

Retiming audio is trivial compared to video.

Bear in mind the temporal resolution of the 5D2 is thirty frames per second for video, while it captures audio at forty four thousand, one hundred times a second (effectively 22,050 'frames' if you know your nyquist theorems.) That's 1470 'frames' of audio for every single video frame, this allows plenty of scope for speeding up and slowing down audio.
