Your footage stays first-class.
Supplied video is handled as owned source material. It does not pretend to be generated media and does not need to pass through a generation provider.

Controlled film production
Films,
not clips.
Real footage, generated shots, stills, maps, graphics, narration and music — assembled into one controlled production, finished through FilmCraft, checked before approval, and delivered as a real master.
No raw engine access. No arbitrary filesystem paths. Production stays inside NFI-owned projects.

From source to approved master.
The studio owns the sequence, project identity, ingest, finishing, quality gate and approval record. External engines remain replaceable tools — not the authority over the film.
01Brief
Purpose, claim, audience and production format.
02Ingest
Owned video and image assets enter controlled project storage.
03Build
FilmCraft assembles the project and high-quality master.
04Finish
Titles, transitions, Rec.709 and audio finishing.
05QA
Technical checks run before approval can be trusted.
06Approve
Approved master receives a SHA-256 identity.
Production standards, not export presets.
Derived delivery files are convenient. The master remains authoritative.
Picture4K when source supports it
High-resolution master path with max-depth rendering where supported.
MasterProRes 422 HQ
Mezzanine master rather than treating a social H.264 file as the production authority.
ColorRec.709 SDR
Controlled current color-management target across the finishing path.
Audio48 kHz / high-quality PCM
Production audio remains separate from low-bitrate delivery assumptions.
QualityMachine-checked before approval
QA report is part of the production state, not a note added after export.
IdentitySHA-256 approved master
Every approved master can be identified independently of its filename.
Approval has a record.
The film is not “done” because a render exists. Build, quality report and approval are distinct production states.
