How leading GLAMP (galleries, libraries, archives, museums, and performing arts) organizations — and the studios, archives, and production companies that sit alongside them — are transforming how they manage digital assets and collections.
About the Event
Cultural heritage organizations face unique digital asset management and collections management challenges. From centuries-old manuscripts to studio backlots, these collections demand specialized approaches to digitization, metadata, preservation, and access.
“DAM and Collections Management for Cultural Heritage LA” brings together GLAMP professionals and studio archivists, production asset managers, and rights specialists who understand that managing heritage, whether it's a 400-year-old manuscript or a 40-year-old film negative, is about stewardship, discoverability, and protecting an asset's value for the long term.
Every session is designed with the realities of both cultural and entertainment archives in mind. The most pressing issues are examined and the significant challenges addressed, including:
- Metadata standards (ISAD(G) and EAD, alongside production and episodic metadata schemas)
- Digital preservation strategies built to last decades – for both paper collections and physical film/video formats
- Copyright, chain of title, and rights & clearances complexities across historical and studio-owned materials
- Making collections discoverable while protecting sensitive, unreleased, or licensed content
