  26. Today: Mixture of physical and file-based media Vault & Off-site Storage facility: - over 750,000 physical items DAM: Near-line and LTO tapes - 155,000 Digital Assets Archiving Phase 26 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  27. Metadata from databases: - groomed & uploaded into MARS Physical assets: - bar coded & archived Archiving Phase 27 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  28. MARS Asset Record Archiving Phase 28 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  29. Physical assets Archiving Phase 29 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  30. FILE-BASED MEDIA: Artesia Open Text: 30 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  31. DAM: Over 155,000 assets Thumbnail identifies the type of asset being displayed 31 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  32. Most integrated example of digital workflow Stills database from production uploaded into our MARS database Digital stills are ingested into our digital asset management system Displayed in both MARS & DAM Stills: 32 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  33. A still record in the producer’s stills database… 33 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  34. The same still record now in our archive database… 34 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  35. The still is available to download from MARS at high or medium resolution. 35 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  36. And stored and pulled from the DAM system, without users realizing there is an integration. 36 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  37. But what do we do with the file-based video… 37 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  38. What we are currently testing: Mapping from Database record To DAM 38 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  39. Ingest tool: • Software called VITA. • It is able to ingest the production database data at the same time as the video ingest. • It asks your security credentials, keyframe interval, and the XSL stylesheet to query in order to do the ingest. 39 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  40. After ingest, users may stream the video, or download the proxy or essence : 40 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  41. Create a mapping document between Filemaker and DAM Use mapping to generate an xml stylesheet Video is ingested simultaneously with the metadata from Filemaker using the xml stylesheet Technical metadata is ingested simultaneously with the video and production data using the xml generated by the source digital files. It’s challenging: 41 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  42. Different formats being created all the time. Different cameras generate different folder structures Files for actual media are nested several folders down. It’s challenging: 42 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  43. It’s challenging: Sony EX structure 43 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  44. It’s challenging: Panasonic P2 structure 44 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  45. It’s challenging: Media Database - CatDV 45 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop

  46. Takeaways FileMaker Tools help track material Standard metadata is the key to success Must remain nimble with ever changing media Must keep exploring easier integration of systems 46 WGBH Public Television Quality Workshop
