Incorporating Annotated Video into Omeka
The enhancement of Indiana University's "Annotator's Workbench" into an Omeka plug-in, allowing for detailed annotation in video archival collections.
Indiana University Bloomington’s (IUB) Institute for Digital Arts and Humanities requests a Level II grant to support the project "Incorporating Annotated Video into Omeka." During the grant period, IUB will build a plugin for the Web-publishing platform Omeka that will enable academic and cultural institutions and individuals to incorporate annotated video into online collections and exhibitions. Using either the client- or Web-based version of IUB’s software tool, the Annotator’s Workbench, scholars and cultural professionals will be able to segment and annotate video and upload it to an Omeka-based Web site using the plugin created by IUB. The annotated video plugin for Omeka will greatly enhance the pedagogical and research potential of video for online collections and exhibitions by providing humanities scholars and cultural institutions with a tool for incorporating video segments that contain integrated descriptive data linked specifically to the video content.
