I shot this with a former coworker in his home, which was his first time in front of a camera. We had a lot of fun, shot about 2 hours with many setups and angles.

I'm not happy the lighting and colors, but we had to use available light.
It's missing some music, which didn't turned out as I wanted.

I never thought that converting PAL to NTSC is such a big problem, I lost a lot of sharpness with Premiere Pro.
 
this may sound lke a crappy way of doing it but, deinterlace, the 50i to 25p, then trandsfer the 25p to 24P. it saves about as much rez as is possible. especailly if you shot 25p anyway, then its just slowing the footage down, a couple percent.
 
I shot 25p, then sped up to 29,97 without converting. This gave me a little more time . The problem was the aspect ratio, from 576 to 480.
 
i dunno, vegas retains aspect ratio by itslef... check premier maybe theres a setting....
 
28 cuts in a 24 second video (not including logo) almost gave the same effect as a strobe light to me. I think you could of achieved the same without so many cuts. Overall, nice job.
 
I thought the cuts were good. You could of ended without the typing though. Why, I dont know why, it just seemed fake.
over all it was nice.
