when shooting with the 7d....

I am wondering what everyone is doing when shooting 1080 24p and 720 60p conformed to 24p for slow mo shots in the same timeline

once you transcode or long and transfer, do you use a 720p or 1080p timeline?

depends on which formatt you shot it? Did you shoot 720 or 1080?

 

[aalleexx]

both

what I mean is that normally you would shoot 1080p 24 and some 720 60p for slow mo 24p

what timeline?

 

[Jay Rodriguez]

24p or more specifically 23.98

 

[aalleexx]

what I am really worried about is the frame size 720p or 1080p timeline

the framerate is irrelevant to the question I have, but its all 23.976 actually

anyone please help?

lol... why not just export 720? 1080 will be downrezed a little, making everything the same. If you go 720 to 1080 you are stretching the 720 footage. Whats your delivery medium?

This project was shot using three different cameras, the HPX170, the EX1 and finally the 7D (everything after about the 3:00 mark when we go to Brazil).

The FCP timeline was set up as a 1920x1080 23.98fps ProRes project. The HPX footage was all shot 720 and dropped in the timeline, the EX1 footage was 1080 and the Canon 7D footage was a mixture of 1080/24p and 720/60p. The 720/60p footage was, for the most part, re-timed to 24p in Cinema Tools for slow-motion effect, though there are some straight-up 60p shots that were just dropped in the timeline.

As always, it's Vimeo, so I wouldn't go to far in judging the sharpness and all that. I merely post this to give you an idea of what the finished product can look like with different cameras, different frame sizes, etc.…
