24p capture

[Guest]

Ok... I know this has been hammered to death, but just so that I'm clear here.

I will be working on Avid XpressPro.

I want to have the "look and feel" of 24p.
I will be outputting this project to tape for normal television broadcast (29.97).
A large portion of this footage may end up in slo-mo.

So my questions are: general camera settings:

24p for interviews and 30p for slo-mo?
Or can 24p deliver good slo-mo?
Shutter speed set to 1/60 for
best results?

For Post:

Does the 100A automatically downconvert the 24p or 30p footage to 29.97 while I digitize? Or do I use something like DV Film Maker to downconvert the footage first and then import it into my project?

I really appreciate any help on this. Seeing as this seems to be a fairly recurring kind of question, would I be out of line to suggest the creation of a "most frequently asked questions" page? That way you wouldn't have to answer this stuff everytime a newbie like me shows up?

Thanks again for your help,

Tim

Is it 24P or 24AD?? You can do the 24p regular in Avid at 29.97

Thanks for the suggestion. Yah... I had already looked at that article. I was hoping there might be another suggestion floating around out there somewhere. I just really hate After Effects.

Thanks though!
