KenAllen started the first in a series of free seminars in their new studios on April 18, 2008:
Digitizing a museum’s collection is usually presented as a large and expensive project, entailing the purchasing of expensive equipment and the hiring of appropriate technically-oriented staff. However, much can be accomplished on a smaller scale with a limited budget.
Small digitization projects develop institutional knowledge and provide use cases to promote as well as procure funding for additional projects or expansion of a digital library.
This workshop will demonstrate the capabilities and benefits of the small, low-impact digitization project. Learn about the advantages, limitations, ideal applications, and benefits of the $5,000 digitization project; understand the process of digitization and how to manage your project.
For: Curators, Collections Managers, Rights and Reproduction Staff
What: Photographic collections that contain:
• Daguerreotypes • Collodion Images (e.g., tintypes, ambrotypes) •
• Cartes de Visite • Cabinet Cards • Lantern Slides • Glass Negatives •
• Stereographs • Postcards • Small Prints (8×10 or smaller) •
The seminar will include demonstrations on typical equipment and information on do-it-yourself projects.
The solutions demonstrated in this seminar are NOT ideal for objects larger than 8×10 inches or for preservation quality scans of modern film or large prints, this last will be covered in a future seminar.
This seminar blends color theory with basic how-to information for faultless digital printing. Participants are walked through the process of scanning or photographing a scene, editing the image in Adobe PhotoShop™, and printing it, while maintaining precise color matching in each step.
This seminar provides insight and advice on one of the most pressing issues for professional digital photographers and commercial studios today: How to manage the dramatic growth of their digital assets.
