I forgot to mention that p

I forgot to mention that pulldown was invented so you could record 24p to tape. You actually want to edit it. Generally, you want to be editing footage that is actually 24p, but if the only think you’re doing is cutting, it’s fine to ingest your footage as 60i, treat it as 60i through post, and then export it as 60i. 24p with pulldown is in fact 60i, which is why you treated as 60i.
