HV20 + M2 (MTV Commercial)

[Phil H.]

Some of you may have seen this over at Redrock's forum. We're still waiting to finalize the edit with the client on this, but here's what we have so far:

i like the colors.
i have a question. i see motion blurred frames between sharp frames, like there is a pulldown problem, meaning few frames sharp then one doubled then some few sharp and again. why this happened?

Phil, I liked the different angles you got in your shots. Did you use a crane in some of them? Nice spot.

If I remember correctly Phil said he does not remove pulldown since his stuff is going directly to television. So what you are looking at is the ghosting artifacts of pulldown.

Even if you're going direct to TV, it's still a good idea to remove pulldown. It's just better that way. This is especially true if the entire project is 24p, in which case pulldown should be removed before editing and then added back into the final product.

The artifacts you're seeing are the lack of pulldown, thus there are interlaced frames every few frames. As um3k pointed out, it probably is better to do the pulldown anyway, then reverse pulldown later. It will eliminate that weird interlacing effect and just make the workflow smoother. That said, I do plan to go back and do the pulldown, then reedit. I think I'll do this for all future 24pf shot material from the HV20 also.

Yes, I had a 12' Kessler Crane on set.
