Disable 24p pulldown to simulate film-video transfer

By default, Adobe Premiere Pro uses a 24p pulldown scheme to playback 24p DV footage at 29.97 fps in a project based on one of the NTSC presets. You can disable the pulldown scheme to give your movie the look of a film transferred to video or broadcast, without frame interpolation.

  1. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) a 24p clip in the Project panel.
  2. Select Interpret Footage.
  3. Under Frame Rate, select Remove 24P DV Pulldown.
  4. Click OK.
Additionally, you can apply any of a number of third‑party film‑look plug‑in effects to the master sequence. These plug‑ins can often perform telecine‑style conversion, or add grain or color correction to simulate various film stocks. Pay close attention to lighting and, during shooting, use tripods and do slow pans to create the appearance of using a heavy film camera. Attention to these details will give your project more of a film look.
