Hi
I have a query for you post-prod gurus...
I shot a recent movie using my Canon 6D. We used 1080p (24 fps) for all scenes except a single slow motion shot in one scene shot at 720p (60 fps) - the Canon 6D does not offer 1080p at 60 fps.
The movie is for the film festival circuit so will likely be shown via a DVD.
My editing software is Premier Pro.
We are about to start editing.
I have never had a mix of 1080p and 720p footage in the same movie before. How should it best be handled?
It seems a shame to drop the resolution of all the scenes shot in 1080p down to 720p just because a single slow motion shot had to be shot in 720p.
I have heard that upscaling footage shot in 720p to 1080p is possible but often looks terrible...
If need be, we can drop the 720p shot but I would prefer not to. We could also re-shoot it in 1080p and simply forget about the slow motion - but the shot does really look great in slow mo.
Any advice would be huge appreciated.
