Disable 24p pulldown to simulate film-video transfer

By default, Premiere Pro uses a 24p pulldown scheme to play back 24p DV footage at 29.97 fps in a project based on one of the NTSC presets.
You can disable the pulldown scheme to give your movie the look of a film transferred to video or broadcast, without frame interpolation.

1. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) a 24p clip in the Project panel.

2. Select Modify > Interpret Footage.

3. Under Frame Rate, select Remove 24p DV Pulldown.

4. Click OK.

Additionally, you can apply any of a number of third-party film-look plug-in effects to the master sequence. These plug-ins can often perform
telecine-style conversion, or add grain or color correction to simulate various film stocks. Pay close attention to lighting and, during shooting,
use tripods and do slow pans to create the appearance of using a heavy film camera. Attention to these details gives your project more of a film
look.

Display 24p source timecode

When you import 24p footage, Premiere Pro treats it as 23.976 fps progressive footage. Because of this, when you work with 24p footage in a 24p
project, the timecode is displayed as 24 fps. However, the camera records and logs 24p footage in 30 fps non-drop-frame timecode. When you log
24p footage for capture, you log clips according to the camera’s timecode count of 30 fps non-drop-frame timecode.

For example, a clip that you log for capture may have an In point of 00:01:00:28. However, as an offline clip in a 24p project, the In point is shown
as 00:01:00:23. In addition, mixing non-drop-frame footage with drop-frame footage can cause larger differences in timecode display between the
project and the clip, with minutes, seconds, and entire durations seemingly out of sync. Be aware of these discrepancies as you edit.

If you use 30 fps non-drop-frame timecode for projects containing 24p footage, Premiere Pro drops every fifth frame from the 24p footage
timecode count. When you view the properties of your 24p clip, the frame rate is shown as 23.976, but the timebase as 29.97. If you’d prefer to
read a clip’s original timecode, do the following:

1. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the clip in the Project panel.

2. Select Modify > Interpret Footage > Use Frame Rate from File.

Start a mobile device sequence

You can edit video for delivery to mobile phones, portable media players, and other portable devices. Selecting a project preset that matches the
requirements of the target device is the easiest way to get started. When you are done editing your movie, use Adobe Media Encoder to encode it
with the audio and video characteristics correct for the target devices.

1. Do one of the following:

From the Welcome screen, click New Project.

Select File > New > Project.

2. In the New Project dialog box, click OK.

3. In the New Sequence dialog box, select the Sequence Presets tab.
