editing remove 24frames from 25fps footage - best way?

Hi there, I'm currently working on a experimental film for a uni project and I'm wanting to take away 24 frames away every second from a 25fps piece of footage. What would be the best way?

I either thought doing it in post production ( which possibly would be easier as I want the sound from the footage as well) or do a 1fps time lapse with 550D and record sound separately.

Thanks for advice in advance,
 
Yeah, I'd say time-lapse would probably be easiest. If you wanted to do it in post, you wouldn't remove 24 frames -- you'd remove one -- the one you want (by exporting as a still). And then place that one frame in the timeline.
 
In camera is the best way if you know for sure that's what you want. Might be hard syncing audio, but by doing it with stills then you end up with a much higher resolution than 1920x1080, which means you can crop pictures down, move them around, or edit and release it in 4k haha.
 
Have you tried just watching it at 24fps without doing anything else? A slight timing shift may be negligible. They do this with real films.

It's about a 5-6% slowing down, but you keep the same level of image quality.

Any sync issues with the audio can be worked out.

Syncing audio at 1 fps? :hmm:

I really doubt it's sync sound ;)
 
FFMPEG can convert from 25 to 24fps, it will adjust the audio for you as well. You can install it on Win, OSX & Linux.

FFMPEG is a command line program for transcoding multimedia files, very useful. Takes time to learn, but doesn't everything huh ?

There is a GUI based build for windows at :
