Film Evaluation & Strategy Planning

Film Evaluation & Strategy Planning is a tailored service designed to assess your film’s strengths, target audience, and market potential. Our team carefully reviews the creative and technical aspects of your project, evaluates its festival and streaming suitability, and develops a strategic plan to guide its distribution. This includes identifying the most relevant festivals, platforms, and promotional approaches to maximize visibility and success.

Encoding & Delivery

Encoding & Delivery: Encoding and delivery is the process of preparing your film for distribution by converting it into the required file format and ensuring it meets specific technical standards. This includes choosing the appropriate resolution, codec, and bitrate to maintain the highest quality while ensuring compatibility with various playback systems. The final file is checked for quality control, including syncing audio and ensuring subtitle accuracy. After encoding, the film is delivered through methods like digital file transfer (FTP or cloud storage) or physical mediums (e.g., hard drive or DCP for theaters). This ensures that your film reaches its destination, whether it's a film festival, streaming platform, or distributor, in the best possible format for viewing.

Metadata & Artwork Management

Metadata & Artwork Management involves the careful organization and enhancement of key film elements to maximize its visibility and discoverability, particularly in digital platforms and film festivals. This includes creating accurate and compelling metadata such as titles, genres, keywords, cast and crew details, and release dates, which help search engines and users find the film. Crafting a clear and engaging synopsis is essential to capture the essence of the story, enticing potential viewers or distributors. Additionally, ensuring subtitles are available in multiple languages can broaden the film’s audience, making it more accessible worldwide. Promotional artwork, including posters, banners, and high-quality stills, plays a crucial role in representing the film’s visual identity and generating interest. Effective management of these elements ensures the film is not only easy to find but also presents a professional and appealing image, boosting its chances of success in competitive markets.

Platform Submission & Monitoring

This service covers the complete process of submitting your film to streaming platforms, online marketplaces, or festival portals, ensuring it meets all technical and metadata requirements specific to each outlet. We manage all communications with the platforms, including uploading the final assets (video, subtitles, artwork, press kits), filling out submission forms, and addressing any feedback or technical issues that arise. Once the film is submitted, we actively monitor its status, from initial processing to public release, and keep you regularly informed about progress, approval stages, live dates, or any necessary follow-ups to ensure a smooth and timely launch.

Revenue Reporting

Revenue Reporting refers to the systematic and transparent process of tracking, analyzing, and presenting your film’s financial performance across various distribution channels. This includes monitoring income from theatrical releases, streaming platforms, digital rentals, physical sales, and licensing deals. A robust revenue reporting system not only provides detailed breakdowns of gross and net earnings but also accounts for deductions such as distribution fees, taxes, and marketing expenses—ensuring filmmakers understand where their money is going and what returns they’re receiving. Transparency in this area builds trust between rights holders and distributors, enabling informed decision-making about future sales strategies, contract negotiations, and reinvestments. Ultimately, it empowers creators by offering a clear view of their film’s commercial impact and financial health.
