I made a project file for you that is setup to maximize the smoothness but it will probably have some artifacts. So, try using chris’s method: drop your 30i into 60fps comp add timewarp with a speed of 66.666667, then drop that comp into a new 90 fps, time stretch 66.6667 and output at 18fps. going from 120 to 24 fps will definitely produce a very tight shutter angle look, if you don’t want it to look like saving private ryan (or any jason stratham action film) try enabling frame blending (frame mix), reelsmart motionblur or timewarp’s motion blur trick to bring some motion blur back into the footage.īut to get back to your question about getting 30i to 18fps… if you interpret the 30i footage as being truely 30fps (which will be necessary), then the common factor between 30 and 18 is 90 (30×3=90, 18×5=90). Now drop that footage into a 23.976fps comp and the movement should be smooth. you should have 59.94fps footage at half speed, so that’s the same as 119.88 footage at full speed, right? You could get this with ae, if you used chris’s technique, but in the start comp set timewarp to 50% (don’t for get to double the comp length, enable time remapping and extend the out point of the footage) then render that comp. then dropping that into a 23.976 comp would show one-out-of-five of those frames, but the movement should be very smooth. since it is quite easy to create good 59.94fps footage from 30i, going to 119.88fps would only require 1 interpolated frame for every frame, which both timewarp and ae’s frame blending (pixel motion) do fairly well. Ideally you’d like to get the 30i to 120fps (119.88fps to be precise).

I don’t think there is any relationship between 99fps and 23.976, it’s just that 99fps is the highest fps that ae allows, and thus will produce the quite a few interpolated frames to choose from when dropping around 75% of them to create 23.976fps.
