On Location
Online conform and QC across Riyadh and Jeddah — IMF wraps for Shahid VIP, Netflix MENA, Apple TV+ Arabic, AS-11 broadcast for MBC and Saudi Broadcasting Corporation, automated QC with Telestream Vidchecker and Baton, CST and GCAM compliance.
We run online conform and QC at MBC Studios Riyadh, Telfaz11, and Pixomondo Riyadh finishing suites. We work on DaVinci Resolve Studio (primary), Baselight Editions, and Avid Symphony for legacy conforms. Conform pulls VFX shot replacements from Pixomondo Riyadh, NEOM XR Lab, Beyond Studios Riyadh, Manga Productions, and cross-border houses (DNEG India/UK, Image Nation Abu Dhabi). Titles and credits come from After Effects via DPX or EXR sequences. Audio stems arrive DCP-style (5.1, 7.1, Dolby Atmos 7.1.4) from MBC and Image Production House Dubai re-recording stages. Automated QC runs through Telestream Vidchecker and Interra Baton against client templates. We meet Netflix MENA Originals Specifications, Amazon Prime Video Arabia Technical Specifications, Apple TV+ HDR Delivery Specs, Disney+ MENA delivery, and Shahid VIP specs. We also meet DPP UK AS-11 broadcast specs when MBC co-produces with the BBC. Manual QC passes catch dropped frames, flash frames, exposure spikes, audio sync drift, and subtitle alignment.
Saudi Arabia's compliance setup has layers. CST (Communications, Space and Technology Commission) sets broadcast tech specs. GCAM (General Commission for Audiovisual Media) handles content type (G, PG, PG12, PG15, R15, R18) and reviews it before theatrical or broadcast release. NDMO data-residency rules govern sovereign-content storage. That storage routes to AWS Saudi Region (Riyadh, 2024), Google Cloud Dammam Region, or Microsoft Azure Saudi regions. Final deliverables include IMF JPEG 2000 wraps for Netflix MENA, Amazon Prime Video Arabia, Apple TV+ Arabic, Disney+ MENA, and Shahid VIP. We make AS-11 MXF for MBC, Al Arabiya, OSN+, and Saudi Broadcasting Corporation broadcast. We build DCP via Doremi, Qube, or Sony for AMC Saudi Arabia, VOX Cinemas, Muvi Cinemas, Empire Cinemas, Red Sea International Film Festival at Ritz-Carlton Jeddah, Saudi Film Festival Dhahran (Ithra), and AlUla Film Awards. We hold LTO-9 tape archive for KAPSARC and Darah long-term preservation. We bill SAR 3.75:1 USD, with 15% VAT, on a Sunday-Thursday workweek.
