Export DCP in Adobe Premiere Pro for festival / contest / theater

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

If you are trying to enter your film into certain festivals or contest, you might have encountered rules about DCP delivery. DCP means Digital Cinema Package and there are certain requirement you should follow to make pass the regulations and also enable playing in theater without any issues.
DCP Aspect Ratios
Flat 1.85:1 = 1998x1080
Scope 2.39:1 = 2048x858
Make sure to use 24 Frames Per Second!
Resolutions are 2K because most theaters are still 2k and most festivals and contest don't request for larger resolutions like 4K, as also the 4k DCP can't be played on a 2K projector.

    For those using Mac M1 or M2 , Adobe does not provide Wraptor for newer Mac anymore. Here is a video to use DCP-O-Matic which is a free DCP software and allows 4k. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lX6ewaN6ddffYaQ.html

    IMPORTANT FOR MAC USERS. Most cinemas (festivals) need Linux or Windows formatted drives to play the DCP from. So, while you can export DCP from Premier Pro on PC and be fine. Mac users have to jump through another hoop: how to transfer to a windows drive.

    Hello Chungdha. Thank you very much for the tutorial. But just 2 questions : Once the sequence is created, what do I do with it ?... Should I just insert it on an additional track of the editing before exporting in DCP ? About the frame size : for a 16:9 movie, should I select "flat (1.85:1)”, and forget about the letterbox black side bars ? Thank you for your help.

    Yes you can, but mainly make sure the theater or the festival requirement is the correct DCP ratio that you need to deliver in. Then just have video new sequence and scale it to fit inside it. Either have black bars on side or top and bottom just to fit in the projected resolution of the projectors.

Also in your video there is another wrong thing, You don't ask theaters for what screens they have that it could make effort for" which aspect ratio works the best" as you sad. It depands only from DoPs in th postproduction process, the DoP decides what the movie should look like and it depands what camera he had work with, what lenses he had and what he would like to show in the picture. Is the screen is flat or scope the DCP package will be adjusted apropriate ti aspect ratio of a screen.
