Agenda items

  • discuss last meeting's presentation

  • update from @JT Mere: UCLA TV Film Archive inquiry

    • not digital - next year's big project

    • current head ("Eddie") has been their 30 years - interim

    • metadata and licensing is key

    • "biggest mistake is underestimating the work"

    • no production assets whatsoever

    • archival footage - they license stuff out

    • they negotiate w/studios re: end final product

    • talk to Acting Dean - Brian Kite of School of Theater, Film & Television

  • consider various ways we can implement an Asset Repository - for example:

    • a small, curated set of assets representative of the complexity of our members' work (i.e. ORCA) to use for verifying/testing

    • a curated set of "best practice" assets aligned with our industry's needs (USD, HDR, etc.)

    • a curated set of "best practice" assets aligned with our projects needs (EXR, VDB, video footage, etc.)

    • a badging system for discussing/endorsing approaches

    • other suggestions?
