Cinema-Ready
We've mastered hundreds of DCPs - Ads, Trailers, Shorts, Feature Films, you name it. All our DCPs go through a review and validation process to guarantee flawless playback during your cinema screening.
Fast Turn-Around
Short form content is turned around in 24 hours and feature films in 1-3 business days.
Free Surround Sound Upmixing
Only have a stereo audio mix? No problem, Unravel can upmix your audio to 5.1 surround sound at no additional cost. In a cinema environment, this helps place the dialogue and key effects behind the centre of the screen rather than off to the left and right side channels.
Loudness Checks
There are standards for how loud DCPs can be for advertisements and trailers. We make sure to check your volume levels and adjust them accordingly to ensure your content plays back at the correct level and doesn't get rejected for being too loud or quite.
2K or 4K | Same Price
We don't charge extra for 4K mastering, so whether you require a 2K or 4K DCP, the price stays the same.
Framerate Conversion?
In cinema, 24fps is the go-to standard for global screenings. If your film was shot at a different frame rate, don’t worry - most theatres can handle it these days. That said, if you do need a 24fps version, we can make it happen smoothly, including any audio tweaks required. Every project’s different, so if you’re unsure, just drop us a line - we’ll sort it out together!

Spot Check vs. Full Manual Review
Our entry level option for longer form content includes a spot check review. In a Spot Check we review your DCP at key intervals, but we don't watch the entire film through. Our Full Manual Review has an operator watch the film from end to end after conversion to DCP and let you know if they identify any large problems stemming from the master you have provided. All DCPs also go through an automated validation to ensure that they are DCI compliant. The review process is specifically for catching problems that originate in the master provided to us for conversion.
