Title: Frames per second for agencies
Post by: grejak on January 08, 2019, 12:29

I generally upload to many agencies, i have noticed that there is mixed FPS all over the footage some have 30 fps some 24 fps. I have been mostly shooting at 24 frames, is there a correct way of doing it for stock or any particular agency? Thanks

The general correct answer is that content sells, not frames per second or codecs, or even resolution.

A heavily compressed 27 fps clip of Elvis alive and well in 2019 at a 4:3 aspect ratio (640x480) will sell a thousand times more than your backyard RAW, 60p, 8k clip.

i couldn't agree more, i am just trying to maximize the quality with content
