When a film obtains distribution, the distributor will have a list of items that need to be delivered to them on a hard drive. Each distributor will have its own requirements and specs that need to be met, including length and placement of bars & tone, slate, audio channel configuration, textless elements, and technical requirements for passing QC. Having a different domestic distributor and foreign distributor will likely require two different sets of deliverables. A quote for deliverables can be given upon seeing the distributor's specs.
