Define "lossless" ... seriously, that's a personal choice.

 

Most movie work is done with up to several generations of some of the clips of the project, typically using ProRes 4444 as they may have alpha channel needs. BIG files.

 

Some long-form or episodic work is done with lesser needs, so several generations of ProRes422 or ProRes422 HQ, or the DNx/r equivalents, are fine.

 

Much work is done where two-three generations of ProRes 420 will be indistinguishable.

 

Pick your poison.

"We" don't know your media, the use of your exports, so we don't know anything that would help us give advice.

 

For some things where only one generation or two of intermediate work is involved, even a fairly high bitrate H.264/5 format can work.

 

But it depends on what you start with, and what you're doing to it, and what you need to end up with.

That is your answer: they are huge files.
