ARCHIVE IMPACT PRESENTS

INDEXING STILL IMAGES

The Atlanta workshop promises theory, practice, and discussion. Participants will walk away with an understanding of how to analyze still and motion imagery. Students are encouraged to participate in the intensive workgroups and experience for themselves the different ways that people see the same imagery. Workgroup participants will learn to reach consensus and consistency through thought provoking group discussion.
