AIM:

To introduce the concepts, issues and PRACTICAL APPLICATION of still &
moving image metadata in the creation of digital resources.

Each workshop is primarily aimed at those from the Visual & Performing
Arts communities who are relatively NEW to digitisation issues & are
planning, creating or developing digital resources that employ still and
/ or moving images.  It will also be of interest to those outside of

metadata issues for both the PRODUCTION & DELIVERY of digital image
