720p 60fps question? ( Canon T2i)

N.E.S.

I am going to be shooting a music video tomorrow at 60fps.


My intentions for this is I am going for a "Live Look". Now if there is any part that I choose to slow-mo how would I do this working in a 60fps timeline in Final Cut?



Thanks for any replies!

If you want to keep main video at 60p for live look, and you ALSO want slo-mo, then the only way is to interpolate frames, and depending on video and on software it may look acceptable or not.

If you want good looking slo-mo without frame interpolation and blending, then you need to work in either 30p or 24p timeline for your main video and slow down fragments that you want to slow down to either 0.5 or 0.4 speed respectively.
 
What's a live look? You mean 60i/29.97. Any slow motion would then have to be created entirely in post. I'd plan to get this plugin:

24p is going for film look while 60p to me looks like live look like that resembles broadcast sports, news, etc.
I know about bringing 60fps in 24 for slow-motion look, but if my sequence is already 60fps than it will not look natural? I guess there's only on way to find out..........
