    What is best workflow for interpret NTSC footage into PAL project?

    PatriceSh

      Premier Pro CC cutting a film for HD broadcast TV. Majority of footage shot PAL at 1080p, so I made a 1920 x 1080 25p project. Is it okay to make a progressive project for broadcast? Or should I switch to interlaced?

      I am supposed to deliver an NTSC tape to the network.

       

      Some footage is 29.97 and 23.97.  Is it okay to Interpret footage in bin as 25p PAL and then cut it into my sequence.  It seems to play properly; I'm just concerned about problems in the final output. I've read that people duplicate the clip, then interpret to 25fps PAL, and leave the original NTSC alone.  This sounds like a good idea. Working on a MacBook Pro Mountain Lion.

       

      When I output the final QT movie, what are the best settings and codec to use for the final

      Hi-Res output which I will bring on a drive to a post house to do final CC and layback to tape?

       

      Many thanks in advance.
