DIGITAL CINEMA PACKAGE CREATION FOR INDIES
If you are filmmaker, producer, distributor or exhibitor, you may have run into the challenge of creating a DCP (Digital Cinema Package) for showing your film, trailer or other work in digital cinemas around the world. Currently, software to master DCP's is very expensive, and rates charged by post houses even more expensive. And often, the DCP files are subject to problems, compatibility errors and encoding artifacts.
SV2 Post pioneered low-cost, hiqh quality DCP creation here in North Carolina for several of our own projects. SV2 DCP is a dedicated division focusing on the DCP and DCDM process. The process we use relies on specialized tools that we have extensively customized. With our extensive background in post-production, film-outs, computing as well much trial and error figuring out the very complex process of DCP creation, your DCP project will have equal or better quality to much more expensive solutions.
We are making this available to indie & DIY filmmakers, low-budget distributors and others that want to showcase their projects using the same state-of-the-art digital cinema systems big budget Hollywood releases get. We will hand-hold you through the steps required to prep your film (or can do it for you), create and test your DCP and troubleshoot playback issues (unfortunately, DCP files never all play on all systems).
Our DCP creation services include:
+Conforming your film to 24.000 (or 48.000 for 3D material) frames per second
+Insuring sound sync on conversion to 24.000 frames per second
