DCP Services
DCP Creation
A Digital Cinema Package (DCP) is the standard convention accepted worldwide for distributing and projecting films digitally. Using visually-lossless JPEG-2000 compression, DCPs present each and every frame of your film with pristine clarity in the highest digital screening resolutions available today.
We actively support transparency in this industry, and DCP creation has become MUCH easier in recent years. Because of this, creating your own DCP is entirely possible! Check out this step-by-step guide from editor Jonny Elwyn for insight that mirrors our in-house process.
That said, if you prefer the ease and peace-of-mind of having a professionally authored and verified DCP, look no further! Whether you’re planning a film festival run or distributing your film to theaters nationwide, RCR Video can provide you with the materials to exhibit your film with confidence.

Conversion pricing starts at $8/min for a 2K DCP and $12/min for a 4K DCP. Additional costs may be incurred for 3D films or films with frame rates higher than 30fps.
