I'm currently editing with AVID XPress Pro for the Mac.

All of my projects are 23.976.

NOW, I'm wanting to dub these off to Mini-DV or DVCPro NTSC. The way I'm currently down converting is taking the MOV's into After Effects.

Here are my After Effects settings: Comp is 23.976, my export settings are 29.97 with 3:2 pull down at WWWSS.

AVID imports them at lower fields first.

Now I've noticed in AVID when I import, that sometimes there are waves between cuts (like the end of the first cut is lower fields and the start of the next cut is the upper field...as if the cut was at the SS or WS) and waves betweens fast brightness (e.g. when turning the lights on and off to simulate lightning).

What do I need to export my projects at to format them to NTSC 30i for broadbast?
