A Giant Year in Discs

For those outside the media business, may seem difficult to believe that the things we do at Giant are, in fact, work. Who wouldn’t like to watch movies and TV all day long and get paid for it?

In actuality, only the QC teams watch film and TV all day long (hat tip to the Giant QC technicians for their patience, accuracy and visual acuity), but, nevertheless, we are all Giants because we enjoy doing what we do and we enjoy doing it well.

Of course, we’re privileged to collaborate with the best media executives and companies in the world and are pleased to help bring a wide variety of content into your homes and to your devices. “…by all means digital” is our motto, a description become more true every day.

From sports to classic TV, films to miniseries, we take a tremendous amount of pride in our work and we are particularly pleased when a project we’ve helped bring to fans is well-received.

So, as 2013 draws to a close, we thought we’d share a recap of just some of the reviews our collaborations have received this year.
