Magic bullet, film looks, deinterlacing

[Alexa]

When using magic bullet, do you need to deinterlace after? or is the deinterlacing combined with the filters? First time using it today-not sure I see any difference on the monitors.

thanks

deinterlacing isn't needed if shot in 24p or 30p since the footage is progressive.

the footage is in 60i. Some fitlers, like nattress film effects have de-interlacing built in --which is why I asked. tks!

well, I can see, the answer is yes, you still need to de-interlace with MB. I can see that clearly.

this is what I was looking for and found on kenstone.net.

"If you can live without the 24P capabilities of its AE-only version, MBE provides some pretty impressive stock presets to emulate film or "roll your own" using the Look Suite. But remember, these are film "look" treatments, not a 24 fps progressive treatment. If you want true 24P, you'll need a video camera with that capability, a software conversion package such as Film Effects V1.5, (http://www.nattress.com), or the more expensive Magic Bullet Suite."
