in the Film Setting dialog box, or use the Modify Pulldown Phase dialog
box before digitizing (see “Modifying the Pulldown Phase Before
Digitizing” on page 178.
To set the pulldown phase:
1. Determine the correct pulldown phase for 00:00:00:00 in one of the
following ways:
t If you are digitizing film-to-tape transfers, check the transfer log.
t If you are digitizing tapes that have been downconverted from
1080p/24, check what pulldown frame was set for 00:00:00:00 on
the deck that performed the conversion.
If you still cannot determine the pulldown phase, see “Determining the
Pulldown Phase” on page 177.
2. Double-click Film in the Settings scroll list of the Project window.
3. Select the option Set Pulldown Phase of Timecode 00:00:00:00 and
then select the correct pulldown phase (A, B, X, C, D) from the pop-up
menu.
4. Click OK.
Logging Film Information
Once you have entered or imported the basic log information into a bin,
you might want to add film-related log information before digitizing. This
section describes procedures and formats for adding various film headings.
The following are some important requirements for film-based projects:
• The minimum information required for digitizing is the data recorded
in the Start and End video timecode columns, and the pulldown phase
for NTSC transfers, which is noted in the Pullin column (23 or 24-fps
capture only).
• Each reel of film can be logged as a separate clip, and will correspond
to a single master clip, only if the video transfer of the film reel has
continuous pulldown (NTSC format) and continuous timecode (NTSC
