QC checks check color accuracy, audio sync, subtitle placement, and compliance with delivery specs.
Here is the short of it. We set up online conform and QC services with facilities equipped for your project's resolution and delivery format needs.

Online conform and QC for Brazilian broadcast and platform delivery
Here is how this works in practice. Brazilian online conform and QC sits at the bottleneck before final delivery and we route this work through Globo Estúdios PROJAC, O2 Filmes, Casablanca Studios, Quanta Pós-Produção, and Conspiração in São Paulo and Rio. Conform sessions run on DaVinci Resolve Studio and Baselight with full ACES color running, EDL/AAF/XML round-trip from Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, and DaVinci edit timelines, frame-accurate VFX pull lists for Lobo São Paulo, Vetor Zero, and Method Studios Vancouver shot insertion, and final-pass scope-driven QC.
Here is the layout. On the ground, we check against Globo, Band, SBT, Record, RedeTV!, and Globoplay tech specs, Netflix Brasil and Amazon Prime Video Brasil Originals delivery specs, Apple TV+ Brasil and Disney+ Brasil mastering checklists, and HBO Max Brasil plus Paramount+ Brasil sites needs. Automated QC tools (Telestream Vidchecker, Tektronix Aurora, Interra Baton) run alongside human eyes-on review for cadence, drop-frame, audio-video sync, broadcast-safe luminance and chrominance, and gamut clipping.
Here is the short of it. Brazilian QC also handles a specific regulatory and broadcast environment. ISDB-Tb is the terrestrial digital standard (Brazil adopted the Japanese standard with national modifications in 2007), AS-11 is the broadcast wrap, and ANATEL governs transmission compliance. ANCINE sign-ups is required for theatrical and SVOD distribution, LGPD (The country's GDPR equivalent since 2018) governs data residency on AWS São Paulo, Azure Brazil South, and Google Cloud São Paulo, and ANPD is the enforcing authority.
Here is how the work shapes up. On the ground, IMF master delivery covers Netflix Brasil, Apple TV+ Brasil, Disney+ Brasil, Amazon Prime Video Brasil, HBO Max Brasil, Star+, Vivo Play, Globoplay, and Paramount+ Brasil. DCP delivery via Doremi DCP, Qube, or Sony DCP covers Festival do Rio, Mostra Internacional de São Paulo, Festival de Brasília, Festival de Gramado, Festival do Cinema Brasileiro de Paulínia, Anima Mundi, and É Tudo Verdade. Plus Cinemark Brasil, Cinépolis Brasil, Cinesystem, and UCI Brasil theatrical chains. LIBRAS sign-language tracks and audio description are increasingly needed for accessibility compliance.
