Chapter 22 Grading, Mastering, and Distribution

Once you have a picture-locked film and a mixed soundtrack, it may seem like the big creative choices are over. Yet there are still important aesthetic decisions to be made before exporting your project and sending it out into the world. And that last step, distribution, is ultimately what we do all of this for in the first place—so people can see our movie.

The determining factors in choosing your finishing workflow include your budget and where your film is going to be seen. Student films that may show in a couple of regional festivals, and perhaps on YouTube or Vimeo, will have a different workflow than films destined for international festivals, broadcast, or theatrical presentation.
