The Digital Basics Workshop will give attendees essential information to help them make knowledgeable decisions in digitizing their collections, and managing and preserving the files they create. Topics covered include: file formats for video, audio, and still images; compression; infrastructure requirements; hardware and software; technical and descriptive metadata; preservation; and digital asset management. Digital files to be discussed include uncompressed digital video, QuickTime, AVI, MPEG, streaming formats, and others.
