Preservation techniques and methodologies for digital audiovisual works (Prague, Czech Republic, May 20-23, 2009)

Subjects and skills: Latest achievements in the area of reference models and repository technologies for digital audiovisual content

Logic: Digital content is massively produced, and massively forgot. We aim to introduce necessary steps for long-term preservation of the content via indexing, ontological categorizations etc. applying among others also new OAIS standard

Target group: Producers and trainers.

Level of skills and experience of target group: No previous knowledge of archive reference models or repositories is necessary, but will be a comparative advantage.

Distributed post-production techniques in the field of visual and special effects (Telč, Czech Republic during the Arts and Film Festival, June 17-20, 2009)

Subjects and skills: How to collaboratively post-produce digital content?

Logic: We need to bring attention to distributed processes and working online from remote locations on shared audiovisual content because some of the input and output processing tools are often accessible only at one location.

Target group: Producers, new media content providers, professionals from the post-production field and from the animation industry, and trainers.

Level of skills and experience of target group: No previous knowledge of online distributed working environments is necessary, but will be a comparative advantage.
