Hello. This weekend I will be shooting the DVX100A for the 1st time doing typical talking head interviews using a standard 3-point lighting setup. I was going to shoot in 24p Advanced, but was looking foy recommendations from other users on other modes (30p, regular 24p). The client is not looking for anything in particular, but I want it to look the best it can (least like 60i). The project will finish on DVD, then projected at an event. Any thoughts?
 
I'd go with 24PA; if you're cutting in FCP, you can remove the pulldown during capture (not sure if other NLEs do this), cut in a 24P timeline, and burn it to a DVD at 24P, thus saving yourself space on the DVD. The DVD player will automatically at the 3:2 pulldown during playback.
 
Easy enough: if your primary output platform is DVD or web, do it 24pA. If it's tape, broadcast, or anything else, use regular 24p.
