Selig Polyscope Company is a DCP production and digital cinema services provider for film distribution and exhibition scenarios. The website emphasizes that the brand can be traced back to 1896, while its current core business includes DCI-compliant Digital Cinema Package production, mastering, testing, distribution, and technical services for film festivals. It is not general-purpose design software, but rather a professional service focused on post-production delivery and cinema projection workflows.
Its core offering is encoding feature films, shorts, trailers, commercials, social media static title cards, and other content into cinema-playable DCPs, with support for 2K and 4K formats. One of the more valuable parts of the service is manual QC: after a DCP is completed, it undergoes internal testing and is watched from beginning to end by a technician. If requested by the client, it can also be tested in a real screening environment at a partner cinema. For film festivals, Selig also provides digital cinema launch planning, DCP intake and cataloging workflows, SPL screening playlists, mixed-media screening handling, projectionist training, on-site digital cinema managers, DCP downloads, and consolidated hard-drive delivery.
Pricing is relatively transparent. DCP encoding for short films under 40 minutes costs $300 for 2K and $375 for 4K; for feature films over 40 minutes, it costs $800 for 2K and $900 for 4K. Add-on services include uploads to Dropbox, Google Drive, and similar platforms for $30, and uploads to film festival FTP servers for $30 each. Additional DCP hard drives cost $100 when ordered at the time of purchase, or $130 after the order is completed. Nonprofit, educational, and government projects need to contact the company separately.
The advantages are its clear positioning, publicly listed pricing, emphasis on DCI standards, manual quality control, and real-world exhibition experience, as well as coverage of the full film festival workflow from technical processes to on-site screenings. The team claims to have over 70 years of combined film festival and cinema experience and offers year-round support. The drawbacks are that the website does not disclose payment methods, specific delivery timelines, copyright terms, service levels, or refund policies. Pricing for customized film festival services also requires consultation, making it impossible to complete a full budget estimate based on the website alone.
It is suitable for independent filmmakers, production companies, film festival operators, and cinema event organizers preparing for film festivals, theatrical premieres, or commercial screenings. If you only need poster design, editing, or online video publishing, this is not its primary use case.
