Other frame rate converters?
by Erik Thrane on May 26, 2009
Hi,
Unfortunately I don't have AE, so I cannot take advantage of Andrew Kramer's frame rate converter.
I had some 8mm films scanned for a project. The were shot in 18 fps, but I had them scanned in 25 p (PAL) in order to avoid optical blending. Thus I had the original film scanned non-distructively.
Unfortunately, if I reduce the speed to 72% (18/25) in Premiere Pro it can only accomodate the new speed by inserting blended frames or repeating frames.
I need a frame rate converter that can generate the missing frames by interpolation in order to achieve the right speed withoutquality loss. I downloaded and tried out MotionPerfect and Frame Rate Converter HQ, but it seems to me that both degrade the resolution terribly.
Am I doing something wrong?
Can somebody suggest a high-quality frame rate converter that I can download?
Now, the slow-mo thing was actually what I was looking for. So first, thanks! Secondly, is there a way to do the slow-mo part in Final Cut without having to go through AE?
