Subject : Varicam to Film workflow

Client has shot with Varicam at 720 24p.  Offline is on MC at 29.97. Mostly 
cuts and dissolves. Final output is Film out and Television.  What are the 
pros and cons of these 2 workflows...

A)  Conform Varicam in Nitris at 720 59.94.  Output to tape and convert 
finished tape to D5 (or HDCAM) 1080 24p to remove pulldown for film out.

B)  Transfer all footage to HDCAM 1080 24p, and conform in Nitris in a 1080 
24p project.


Obviously, plan B adds a bit more cost, but does this workflow make for a 
better film print?

TIA
