30p Graphics on 24p 3:2 footage.

Hi guys I'm new here, I just recently purchased a canon xl2, but I find that much of the knowledge (which seams to be vast) on this board is easily portable to the xl2.

If this has been covered before, I apologize. The search function seams to be useless as it discards the terms 24p, 60i, DVD etc....

I am about to shoot my first 24p project and I am going to have to decide weather to shoot 24p or 24pa. The output media is DVD.

If I play it safe and shoot 24p, how will my 30p motion graphics look overlaid on the 24p with 3:2 pull down? Will it look strange?

Is there a way to add 3:2 pull down to 24p renders coming out of after effects?

Should I just go ahead and shoot 24pa, edit in 24 timeline and do all my graphics in 24p then out-put to a 24p DVD? This sounds the best, but I have never done it and this is a one time event to shoot (kind of, it would be not as ideal to do it some other time), and I don't want to end up with footage that’s jerky, strobey etc...


The shoot is this Saturday, please some one make sense of all this for me.
