2720 x 24 or 4k x 24

I guess its a personal choice but what do you use of the above to try and get a more cinematic look. I think i'm over trying and cant see the wood from the trees.

To begin with, I shoot at 30 fps, not 24, because it's smoother and my footage isn't going to be projected in a movie theater. Then I shoot in 4k simply because it gives me more resolution to work with in editing, so I can crop the image, straighten it or zoom in on it without losing much, especially if I render in 1080p.

That said, I tend to render in 4k, because I do have a 4k TV.

Fully agree with Mr Salty. "Cinematic" look is not easy to achieve, check up on YouTube for more details on that subject. Use 30p and 4k and all will be fine.
