Zoe Yang, Brooklyn Museum, Fall 2020, RDLGF
In this internship, I mainly worked on the Brooklyn Museum Archives' video preservation project. I conducted preparation tasks for off-site digitization, as well as quality control and metadata ingestion to servers and DAMS. I updated administrative metadata in an analog video inventory and created a new digital video inventory for all 71 digitized assets. I also helped further streamline the preservation workflow of audiovisual items. I was able to gain expertise in collection and metadata management, digital preservation, and video preservation through my work at the archives.
Thank you so much to the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation for their support of this internship at the Brooklyn Museum!
