DCDM

A Digital Cinema Distribution Master is a16 bit TIFF sequence.
It is usually a pre-stage format in the process of creating a DCP. The DCDM is often archived, to act as a source format for future purposes, such as remastering for ancillary markets or for localised versions.

If your DCP did not originate from a DCDM and you’d like to have one for archival purposes then we could reverse the process and create one using your DCP as source, or alternatively from a higher quality master, if available.

 A storage device is not included in the price. One will need to be provided to us or alternatively one could be purchased from us.
DCDM’s can be very large in size. We will advise on the storage size required for your project.

The transfer of the material to your storage is included in the price.
