So I have a link below that shows the results of using a 60p clip in FCP and dropping it in to a
29.97 timeline and applying a 50% slow mo. I'm now giving Cinema Tools a try and the results are pretty outstanding. It's an incredibly simple process. You simply open the clip you want to conform with Cinema Tools, select Conform and it'll ask you what data rate you want to change the clip to. I simply selected 29.97 and not even a second later it was done. I'm not sure if my Mac Pro Quad 3.0 had something to do with this speed, but if it does I can only imagine an octocore would be done before you even started.
Here are the results. I'm going to get a lot of use out of these ducks. They don't require model releases.
WARNING - When you select a clip and drop it in to Cinema Tools and you conform it - it rewrites that clip! So unless that's what you want to happen, make a copy of the files you intend to conform first, then proceed with Cinema Tools.
