FILMMAKER'S CORNER

FILM DELIVERY FOR IN-THEATER SCREENING

DCP ONLY 

We work with Simple DCP. a company that specializes in creating and storing DCP files.  They take all films that were selected by our festival and load them into CRU drives (high performance drives) that are then delivered to our theater for playout.  

What is DCP?

DCP stands for Digital Cinema Package

and is the standard digital format used

by theaters.  It displays the highest quality visuals and sound and provides a

smooth and reliable workflow.
