Our client is a
leading film distributor in the Middle East, handling theatrical releases for
major studios.

for cinema releases including dubbing, editing, subtitling and delivery.

- Manage
trailer and feature deliveries for select film projects from original
screeners to fully localised DCPs for release

queries quickly and effectively

the sales and distribution team with film versioning, format delivery and
technical troubleshooting for cinema releases across the region

and delivery process.

in the digital cinema industry, you will have a good understanding of feature
film mastering, localisation, subtitling and delivery workflows. Dubbing
