Digital Cinema Package (DCP)

Here is how this works in practice. We deliver Digital Cinema Packages built to the DCI standard for trusted playback on any compliant cinema server. Our team encodes JPEG 2000 image data, configures multi-channel audio, builds subtitle and caption tracks, and assembles the package with correct composition playlists and key running for encrypted deliveries. We produce the format variants a release needs — 2K and 4K, flat and scope, 2D and the language and accessibility versions a multilingual market needs — and we test each DCP on a cinema server before hand-off so a screening is never compromised by a faulty package. Shoots in Morocco, from features finished here to global titles wrapping post abroad, rely on correctly built DCPs to move from final master to the cinema screen.

Here is how the picture comes together. The festival circuit makes DCP delivery important in Morocco. The Marrakech Global Film Festival, founded in 2001 and now a glamorous fixture of the global calendar, the National Film Festival in Tangier and the Khouribga African Film Festival all screen from DCP, and a festival premiere depends on a package that plays flawlessly the first time. Morocco's multilingual exhibition landscape. Arabic, French and English audiences — means DCPs frequently carry many subtitle tracks, and encrypted packages need KDMs issued to specific screens and date ranges. Moroccan cinema reaches these stages with global ambition. Maryam Touzani's 'The Blue Caftan' premiered at Cannes before wide festival and theatrical release. We help global and local shoots deliver tested, compliant DCPs that screen reliably at festivals and in cinemas worldwide.
