QC (quality check)

A ‘quality check’ (often abbreviated as QC) in the context of film and video post-production is a comprehensive review process to ensure that the final output meets the desired technical and artistic standards.

A quality check is essential before finalising any project to ensure that the content is free from errors/issues that could detract from the viewing experience or fail to meet broadcast, cinema, or platform-specific requirements.
