a DCP (Digital Cinema Package) with a JPEG 2000 file?

[kevin baggott]

Hello good people
I recently directed an feature on hd - i see some of the festivals require a "a DCP (Digital Cinema Package) with a JPEG 2000 file"
I'm reading about it now on wikipedia. I guess a post house would create this? Any idea how much something like this would cost?
Most appreciated any info - thanks ahead of time.

Here is a free and open source program that will allow creation of DCP media.

What festivals require DCP? The only one I've ever seen that required it (or film) was academy awards.
