Professional DIT services and secure data management for film and TV production in Brazil.

Here is how this works in practice. Data kit cover the hardware and workflows used to securely capture, back up, and transfer digital media on set. From on-set data stations and RAID arrays to checksum verification tools, proper data management protects irreplaceable footage across the production pipeline.

Here is the short of it. We set up reliable data management workflows with locally sourced hardware tailored to your camera formats and storage needs. Our team sets up DIT stations, backup drives, and secure transfer protocols so your production's digital assets stay covered from set to post-prod facility.

LGPD-compliant DIT carts, AWS São Paulo backup, and the Globo PROJAC dailies discipline

Brazilian data work runs under LGPD. That stands for Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados. The law has been in force since 2018. The ANPD (Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados) covers how talent data, image releases, and behind-the-scenes media move from set to post.

We brief each show on data residency rules. We route the primary cloud backup through AWS São Paulo Region. AWS opened in São Paulo in 2011, the first AWS region in Latin America. We also give Azure Brazil South or Google Cloud São Paulo (open since 2017) as backup options when the contract calls for multi-cloud.

Our on-set DIT carts mirror the kit standard at Globo Estúdios PROJAC, O2 Filmes, Cinerent Brasil, and Cor and Som. Codex Capture Drives feed ARRIRAW offloads through Pomfort Silverstack. Each clone gets MD5 and xxHash checksum verification. DaVinci Resolve Live runs the grade for show-LUT bake. LTO-9 archive runs before any drive leaves the cart.

Codex Vault stations support ALEXA 35, LF, and 65 packages cross-rented from Sigma Cine and Panavision in LA. We keep CFast, SxS, AXS, and SSD readers stocked for VENICE 2, V-Raptor, Komodo, and Phantom Flex 4K formats.

The care in these flows comes from a long Brazilian DP lineage. Cesar Charlone shot City of God and Two Popes. Walter Carvalho shot Central Station. Adrian Teijido shot Padilha's Narcos and Tropa de Elite. On those jobs, multi-camera, fast-turnaround dailies became the standard.

We bring that care into today's features. Bacurau won the Cannes Jury Prize in 2019. Walter Salles' I'm Still Here was a Best Foreign Language Oscar nominee in 2025. On both, LGPD-aware chain of custody and Receita Federal compliance kept the rushes and talent data safe.

Here is how this works in practice. For Amazon and Pantanal shoots out of Manaus, we ship hardened Pelican cases with dehumidifiers. We run satellite uplink for proxy delivery. We stage copies in São Paulo before the originals fly to global post houses. Each project ships out with a full LTO-9 archive, ordered metadata, shot-by-shot reports, and a chain-of-custody log. We never lose a frame. We never ship an unverified clone.
