Digital Archiving for Filmmakers, the second in our series of StudioDaily Guidebooks, was created to give media creators—from independent filmmakers to broadcast studios—the information they need to make smart decisions about investing in, upgrading and expanding digital archiving systems in their production and post-production workflows. Thanks to the support of exclusive sponsor Atempo, this comprehensive guidebook is available for free as a PDF download.
Digital Archiving for Filmmakers brings together, for the first time, a series of analytical articles and case studies from experts on the cutting edge of digital archiving research and from filmmakers themselves who have put new archiving systems and workflows to the test in their fast-paced, deadline-driven environments. It begins with an overview of archiving trends, terms and technology and concludes with a directory of manufacturers and companies offering archiving-related products and services to the film and video market.Contributors include The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences research department; Milton Shefter, a leading archival consultant to the motion picture industry, former Hollywood SMPTE chair and president of Miljoy, Inc.; Tom Coughlin, a 30-year data storage industry veteran and president of Coughlin Associates; Front Porch Digital’s Steve Kwartek, who works with the U.S. Library of Congress, the National Archives, The Shoah Foundation and the United Nations; Atempo’s Janet LaFleur, who has worked with CBS, The Cimarron Group and EFILM; and StudioDaily contributors Helmut Kobler, Beth Marchant, Bryant Frazer and Jessica Clegg, who uncover prime examples of archiving workflows in use now in television, film and cultural preservation.
