FILM / FESTIVAL DELIVERY
Your film was selected. Now the festival wants a DCP — the digital cinema package that cinema servers play. We convert your final master to DCP — DCP creation, conversion and mastering in one step — with your sound mix and subtitles, verified so your premiere looks and sounds exactly as you made it.

01
Correct colour conversion, frame rate and aspect ratio (Flat or Scope), so the projection matches your master instead of looking washed out or cropped.
02
Your stereo or 5.1 mix mapped to the right channels and subtitle tracks timed and placed for the cinema screen.
03
Every DCP is verified for errors and reviewed from start to end before delivery, with a report you can send to the festival's technical team.
Festival submissions and selections, from student shorts to award-winning films.
Premieres, festival circuits and one-off cinema screenings.
English and Spanish subtitles for festivals abroad, with matching screeners.
Upload the locked master (ProRes or similar), final audio mix and subtitle files, plus the festival's technical requirements.
We check frame rate, resolution, colour, audio channels and subtitles before encoding.
We create the DCP, verify it for errors and watch it from start to end on a DCP player.
You receive the DCP online, ready to upload or send to the festival, with the verification report.
01
An unencrypted DCP (Interop or SMPTE as the festival requires), delivered online for upload or drive copy.
02
A report confirming the DCP was checked, with its technical details, to send to the festival.
03
A matching ProRes or H.264 file for press, juries or online screening platforms.
We convert, check and deliver your finished film. Editing, colour grading, sound mixing and fixing problems in the master are not included. Encrypted DCPs with KDMs and physical drive shipping are quoted separately.
Before you order
A Digital Cinema Package is the standard file format that cinema servers play — the digital equivalent of a film print. Most festivals require one for theatrical screenings.
Yes. ProRes is best, but we can convert a high-quality MP4 or H.264 file to DCP when that is all you have. We check the source first and tell you if anything will limit the result.
Flat (1.85:1) and Scope (2.39:1) are the two cinema container formats. We place your film in the right one for its aspect ratio so it is not cropped or stretched.
Both are DCP standards. Many festivals now ask for SMPTE; some older systems still prefer Interop. We follow the festival's specification.
Most festivals accept online delivery. If yours asks for a physical drive, we can prepare one as a separate quote.
Yes. The Premium package includes English ⇄ Spanish subtitle translation and timing. Other languages can be quoted.
Yes. Every DCP is verified for errors and watched from start to end before you receive it.
