If you are asking if you can do a Speed/Duration on footage that has been converted from 30 to 24 FPS, then yes. In this case, you can try one of the other two options: Frame Sampling or Frame Blending.īe sure to render the clip when using Optical Flow as it is a processor-heavy effect and will generally not play in real time.Ģ. This generally produces excellent results, but occasionally produces unacceptable visual artifacts, depending on the footage and amount of speed change. Also, like Jim mentioned, for this speed change, you can use the Optical Flow method for the Time Interpolation. If, in the export, you find that the drone shots are unacceptably choppy, then you could look at doing a 30 FPS to 24 FPS conversion beforehand, but it really shouldn't be that bad.Ībout the drone shot at 24 FPS that's moving too fast, you can slow it down by using the Speed/Duration or Rate Stretch tool in Premiere. Premiere will handle the conversion itself. Drop the 30 FPS drone footage into your 24 FPS main sequence and just edit like normal, and then export at 24 FPS. For the most part, you shouldn't have to worry about the different frame rates.
Like Jim said, edit and export at 24 FPS for the smoothest motion.
