Includes FIAT Archive Day - 12th Sept
Mining the Archive
One of the most pressing problems for broadcasters the world over is how to maintain and then monetise the huge amount of material sitting languishing in their archives. Two sessions on Sunday 12 September look at this problem.
‘Digital restoration - new technology, new business’, looks at the tools and techniques available in digital restoration that ensure that content meets modern consumer expectations.
‘Unearth the vault: exploiting the value of archive content’, introduces such topics as contextual inquiry analysis, the automatic identification of distortions which occur in tape-to-digital media transfer, and looks in detail at digital preservation strategies for video content.

FIAT/IFTA has chosen “Making it Real – Keeping it Real” as the theme of the 2010 World Conference. Keeping up with the rapid pace of change in Audiovisual media creation and dissemination has meant that audiovisual archives have had to re-invent the wheel many times. However the fundamental principles that underlined audiovisual archiving in the analogue world still hold true – but there are new ways, new opportunities and new avenues to pursue in the digital and internet era and new economic challenges to keep the wheels in motion.
The Challenge of “Making it Real – Keeping it Real” is about selling the true benefit and value of the “archive /asset management function” and garnering the support and funding to achieve what the profession does best…, but with a new twist – not just as keepers but as publishers, sellers, buyers, technologists and much more. We will bring real experiences and case studies to the conference for discussion. |
