FRAME 2014: Future for Restoration of Audiovisual Memory in Europe

A training course on new technologies applied to the restoration, digitization, preservation and use of audiovisual and cinematographic archives.

The 2014 edition of the FRAME seminar, dedicated to European professionals of the media industry, will take place in June and October, hosted by Ina EXPERT. It will address the issue of new technologies applied to the restoration, preservation, digitization and use of audiovisual archives.

The use of audiovisual content involves new technologies and new way of delivering contents. This use requires having its analogical contents digitized, described, accessible and promoted.

The FRAME seminar addresses, in 2 sessions, each step of the management of these contents: implementation of best practices in terms of preservation and digitization of old content, management of a file-based archive (storage, media management, security of data…), rights’ management, description and accessibility of content for various audiences.
Professionals from Ina, and also from other European and International organizations, will address today stakes thanks to theoretical courses, visits and case studies.

The seminar will be dedicated to 12 European professionals and delivered in English. The deadline for registration is May 9, 2014.

The FRAME seminar is composed of 2 sessions:

The 1st session is dedicated to methodological and technical issues for the implementation of digitization for film, video and sound archives, and the choice of formats, storage and digital content infrastructures. It will take place from 16 to 20 June 2014.

The 2nd session deals with the new uses of archives, the different users (professionals, researchers, and general public), documentation, rights’ management and physical and digital restoration of images. This session will take place from 27 to 31 October 2014.
