Genre Trailer & Sizzle Re-Cuts
$750 – $1,200Indie trailers often drag like three-minute plot outlines. Programmers lose interest immediately. We take your ProRes master and stems to build a focused 60–90 second teaser engineered for festival impact and social traction.

Theatrical projection is unforgiving. An unverified export means color-space clipping, dropped frames, or server handshake rejections five minutes before your premiere. We master bit-accurate, DCI-compliant packages directly from your ProRes deliverables, verifying frame rate, audio channel mapping, and subtitle containers against actual theatrical playback standards.
Simply place your order, send us your ProRes file via WeTransfer, DropBox, or Google Drive to contact@nightfrightsla.com, and we’ll return your DCP files within one week of purchasing.
