Return to the Digital video exploration
Please feel free to list questions for the initial digital video survey below. For example:
Overall challenges
- What are your biggest challenges related to video?
- What is the big roadblock for preserving video? Why is it not part of the usual preservation environment?
- Do copyright issues influence your preservation priorities? If so, how?
High-level Strategy / Resources / Funding
- How are your video preservation activities funded?
- Are you better equipped and resourced for video preservation, for video access, or are they resourced and equipped equally?
- How far back in chain of creation do you go with regular depositors of born digital video? Are you able to influence or define deliverables coming into your repository?
- Do you contract for consultation services to support your video efforts?
- Are you doing video reformatting in-house, through out-sourcing or a combination? If you are outsourcing some of this how did you decide which to outsource?
- Do you store your preservation master files in institutionally managed storage, through a commercial service, or both?
- Do you have the expertise you need for video preservation?
Specifications / Standards / Modeling
- What are the technical specifications (formats, file characteristics, etc) you use? Especially for born digital video.
- Do you have guidelines for preferred/accepted digital video formats? Would you be able to share them?
- Are you storing any technical metadata for video and if so, in what form/schema?
- What types of auxiliary/associated materials files do you keep along with original files (e.g. production stills)?
- Are you trying to model higher level objects (1 program over 4 tapes, for example)? If so how?
- What about the raw material that comes in on one disc or drive (for example everything that went in to creating a documentary). What do you keep? How do you make the decision? Do you keep only the final version?
- Do you index any technical metadata and if so, which fields?
Tools / Technology / Workflow
- Are you delivering the video you preserve, and if so using what tools/platforms/services?
- What analog-to-digital interface do you use (i.e., SAMMA, BlackMagic, Kona, AJA)?
- What tools do you use in a preservation workflow?
- What compression engine do you use to create access derivatives (i.e., Front Porch, Nero MPEG-Streamclip, Apple Compressor)?
- What practices are you using with ingest processing for born digital video - normalize, keep original files, etc.?
Survey Results
Question to ask the data:
- How many respondents are "haves" vs "have nots"?
- Of the haves, what are the top stumbling blocks?
- Of the have nots, what are the top stumbling blocks?
