| - | ====== TITLE CREATION GUIDE and other sorted sundries ====== | ||
| - | The title creation process is not necessarily a linear one. In general some things should be done before others, but often times, the order of title creation can change. That being said, let us delve into the creation of titles. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Creating Collective Titles ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | *Please see the [[collective_title_creation|CREATING COLLECTIVE TITLES GUIDE]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Creating Work Titles ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | *Please see the [[work_title_creation|CREATING WORK TITLES GUIDE]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | Due to the nature of the ʻUluʻulu collections, along with the nature of moving images themselves, cataloging of work titles typically happens after an item has been accessioned, digitized, and viewed. Otherwise, it is often nigh impossible to determine what titles actually exist on the physical carriers. The ʻUluʻulu workflow writing committee supposes that one could create work titles before digitizing—indeed, series titles such as Enduring Pride are one such example—however, for now we will stick with the standard procedures. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Accession items** | ||
| - | *Please refer to the [[guidebook|main guidebook]] to find accessioning instructions. | ||
| - | **Digitize items** | ||
| - | *Please refer to the [[guidebook|main guidebook]] to find digitizing instructions. | ||
| - | **Put access files on cataloger computer** | ||
| - | *Utilize Willie (ʻUluʻulu's resident 32GB jump drive), and procure access files from the media specialist | ||
| - | *Copy files into proper folder on desktop | ||
| - | *videos\[collection] | ||
| - | **Find items in MAVIS client** | ||
| - | *Log into MAVIS | ||
| - | *see [[#the_collection_title|above]] | ||
| - | *Open Items module | ||
| - | *Single click on Items | ||
| - | *Find the items (components) that you are cataloging | ||
| - | *Items -> Find or ctrl+F or click binoculars icon | ||
| - | *Enter search criteria that applies to the entire group of items that you will be cataloging (eg. if you are cataloging a box of tapes, in the Rack No field, enter the box number that all the tapes appear in) | ||
| - | *Or, enter specific criteria for each item or item group with Multiple Find checkbox checked | ||
| - | *View -> User Defines -> HKG Items List | ||
| - | **Watch and shot log items** | ||
| - | *Double click on item | ||
| - | *Go to Shot Log Tab | ||
| - | *Open video in video player | ||
| - | *Enter shot log metadata [might be possible/more efficient to import shot log metadata from a word document] | ||
| - | *Right click, Add | ||
| - | ***Start Time**: h:mm:ss:frames | ||
| - | ***Description**: enter description | ||
| - | ***End Time**: h:mm:ss:frames | ||
| - | *save record | ||
| - | *Repeat for each segment until video ends. | ||
| - | *Declare umbrella titles and multipart titles in notes fields. | ||
| - | *If, while watching the video, it becomes clear that this item contains multiple titles, or that the title(s) on this item extend into other items, the presence of umbrella titles must be noted in the component. | ||
| - | *Go to Notes Tab | ||
| - | ***Notes**: enter declaritive placeholder statements here | ||
| - | *Part of Umbrella Title | ||
| - | *Complete of [title] or Part 1 of 3 of [title] (if known) | ||
| - | *Continued from [item number] | ||
| - | *Continues on [item number]) | ||
| - | **Determine titles** | ||
| - | *After watching a grouping of videotapes, the Cataloger is now in a position to determine where titles begin and end. | ||
| - | *There should be four main types of titles found during this process: single carrier titles—titles that correspond to a single carrier; self-contained umbrella titles—a group of titles that appear in completion on a single carrier; multiple carrier work titles—a title that spans multiple carriers that contain only that title; multiple carrier umbrella titles—multiple titles that overlap multiple carriers. | ||
| - | *Decide what constitutes a title and where they begin and end | ||
| - | *If a title cannot yet be determined, because additional carriers need to be digitized and views, hold off on determining this title | ||
| - | **Create titles.** | ||
| - | *The list of components that you are working with should be in your Items List window. If not, follow the steps above in the [[#creating_work_titles|Find items in MAVIS client]] section to bring up the correct Items List | ||
| - | *Become titles for all single carrier title items, self-contained umbrella title items, and the first item of titles that span multiple carriers. | ||
| - | *Hold down Ctrl key and single click on each of the items that apply | ||
| - | *Right Click on a highlighted item, Become Title -> Moving Image | ||
| - | *Wait for the title creation process to end | ||
| - | **Attach secondary components to the newly created first title titles.** | ||
| - | *Click on a secondary item | ||
| - | *Right click on the item, Attach To... | ||
| - | *In the popped-up Find Box, enter the Title No that you want to attach to, Find | ||

| - | |||
| - | **Okay, okay, That is a good start to cataloging. Now you've got yourself some titles. Why not take a break and start the clip-making process! After you have added clip data to the spreadsheet, you can return to fleshing out your new title records.** | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Clips ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | *Please see the [clips|CLIPS GUIDE]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Add Clip Info to Spreadsheet ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | The next step in title creation is the adding of clip info into the online clip info document. Okay, so this is not title creation, but clip creation. However, these two things go hand in hand. After a new title has been created, it is ready to have a clip attached. As reference material. To the title. Aha, it is part of the process of a title's creation and re-creation. Um, where were we. Oh yes, we need to start the clip making process moving along, and shortly after the creation of a bunch of new titles is a good time to do it. Let us add some clip info to the spreadsheet. | ||
| - | |||
| - | As per usual, we begin with this step: | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Log into MAVIS** | ||
| - | *see [[#the_collection_title|above]] | ||
| - | **Open Titles Module** | ||
| - | *Single click on Titles | ||
| - | **Find work titles** | ||
| - | *Titles -> Find or ctrl+F or click binoculars icon | ||
| - | *View -> Field Query or ctrl+F | ||
| - | *Query: titleSearchClips | ||
| - | *Find | ||
| - | **Remove titles that were already added to the spreadsheet, titles that will not receive clips** | ||
| - | *Hold down Ctrl key and click on titles that apply | ||
| - | *Titles -> Remove from List or Ctrl+R | ||
| - | **Print preview to csv** | ||
| - | *Titles -> Print Preview or click printer with magnifying glass icon | ||
| - | *Click icon that looks like page with two orange arrows | ||
| - | *Choose file name to be saved in IMPORT-EXPORT\MAVISexportforClips folder (ie. videoTitles20120628.csv | ||
| - | *Format: Comma-Separated Values (CSV) | ||
| - | *Export | ||
| - | **Copy into online doc** | ||
| - | *Open .csv file with spreadsheet software (ie. OpenOffice) | ||
| - | *Open online document: clipMetadata | ||
| - | *In a new row: | ||
| - | *Copy Title into TITLE NAME field | ||
| - | *Copy Title No into Title No. field | ||
| - | *Copy Duration Min into Title Duration field [note: If a title has a value in the Duration Hour field, you must place this value in the Title Duration field for that record along with the word hour (ie. 2 hours). If a title has no Duration Hour or Duration Min, you must place the Duration Sec value in the Title Duration field along with the word seconds (ie. 45 seconds).] | ||
| - | **Input Source Item Info** | ||
| - | *do find in item module for carriers attached to titles (carrierSearchTitles) [this is problematic as umbrella titles never go away] | ||
| - | *input item id numbers into doc | ||
| - | *input start/end times of umbrella-ed titles | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Okay, good job there, Cataloger. At this stage you can return to fleshing out your title records, while the Media Specialist does what the Media Specialist does. Check back here later, though, to finish the clip making process.** | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Create Clips/Upload Clips ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | *Please see the [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UZuhOzYN-wYF47_qv8KzL2EhQGZPHjyGozi4Zz54HZY/edit|Media Specialist Notes]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Import Clip Metadata ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Okay, now it is time to attach the clips as reference material to the titles. This is a bulk import process. Hooray! | ||
| - | |||
| - | *Open online document: clipMetadata | ||
| - | *Check clipMetadata spreadsheet for inaccuracies | ||
| - | *Make sure videos have thumbnails in viddler | ||
| - | *Create .csv file for import | ||
| - | *Download as OpenDocument Format (.ods) | ||
| - | *Save File | ||
| - | *Clean up downloaded file | ||
| - | *Open .ods document | ||
| - | *Delete description row (should be row number 2, orange colored) | ||
| - | *Delete already imported rows (light green) | ||
| - | *Delete rows that are not for clip-making (red) | ||
| - | *Delete rows that are series titles((Clips for Series Titles need to be attached manually, due to the nature of the import stylesheet.)) | ||
| - | *Save as a .csv file | ||
| - | *save in IMPORT-EXPORT\ClipImports folder | ||
| - | *append yyyymmdd to file name (ie. clipMetadata20120629.csv) | ||
| - | *check edit filter settings | ||
| - | *Save, Keep Current Format | ||
| - | *Baltic (Windows-1257) | ||
| - | *^ field delimiter | ||
| - | *no text delimiter | ||
| - | *OK | ||
| - | *For any "additional clips" (pink rows), make old clip non-olc | ||
| - | *log into MAVIS | ||
| - | *find title | ||
| - | *open reference material | ||
| - | *uncheck OLC tag | ||
| - | *Import into MAVIS | ||
| - | *Xml File/Path: file is in IMPORT-EXPORT\ClipImports | ||
| - | *Input format: CLIPS (should be import_clips.xsl, convert delimited file, caret) | ||
| - | *Save converted xml | ||
| - | *Archive imported files | ||
| - | *Run Import | ||
| - | *Check titles for correctness | ||
| - | *Mark as imported in online doc | ||
| - | *Open online doc (clipMetadata) | ||
| - | *Highlight successfully imported rows | ||
| - | *Change to light green background | ||
| - | *move xml and csv from savedImports to ClipImports\Imported folder | ||
| - | *Manually add reference materials for Series titles | ||
| - | *Find title record | ||
| - | *Go to Ref Material Tab | ||
| - | *Right click, Add | ||
| - | ***Type**: V: Video Clip | ||
| - | ***File Size**: enter file size from spreadsheet | ||
| - | ***File Format**: Video/mp4 | ||
| - | ***OLC Display**: check | ||
| - | *Right click in Resource Identifier box, Add | ||
| - | ***Res. Identifier Type**: File name | ||
| - | ***Resource Identifier**: enter file name from spreadsheet | ||
| - | *save record | ||
| - | *close Resource Identifier window | ||
| - | ***Notes**: enter Start Time - End Time of Source Item Used from spreadsheet (eg. 00:01:26 - 00:02:08 of 724) | ||
| - | *save record | ||

| - | *save record | ||
| - | *Mark as imported in online doc | ||
| - | *Open online doc (clipMetadata) | ||
| - | *Highlight successfully added rows | ||
| - | *Change to light green background | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Fleshing Out the Title Records ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you have not done it already, it is time to flesh out your title records. This process takes the form of a series of concentric circles, with the Cataloger making multiple cataloging passes through a grouping of titles, adding layer upon layer of metadata. Alternately, or additionally, a bulk import of title info can be performed (see below). I suppose this process really depends on what metadata already exists for these titles. At the very least, there should be information in the component records (notes on what was written on the tape and container should be in the Notes field of the Notes tab; shot log information should be in the Shot Log tab). So, whatever metadata resources you are referring to should be open during the cataloging process. That can include the video itself. Anyway. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Open Your Titles** | ||
| - | *Log into MAVIS | ||
| - | *Open Titles module | ||
| - | *Find titles | ||
| - | *Open title | ||
| - | *Open item | ||
| - | **Add Your Metadata** | ||
| - | *PRODUCTION TAB | ||
| - | ***Language(s)**: enter languages | ||
| - | ***Date(s)**: enter date type and date | ||
| - | ***Color**: Color, Black and White, or Both [color, sound, and duration should already be filled] | ||
| - | ***Sound**: yes or no | ||
| - | ***Duration**: enter total duration of title | ||
| - | *save record | ||
| - | *SUMMARY | ||
| - | *Enter, or, flesh out **Summary** in the general tab | ||
| - | *save record | ||
| - | *CREDITS TAB | ||
| - | *Please see the (non-existent) [[credits|GIVING CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE: a guide to adding credit roles GUIDE]] | ||
| - | *SUBJECTS TAB | ||
| - | *Please see the (non-existent) [[subjects|SUBJECTING OUR TITLES TO SUBJECT HEADINGS: cataloging subjects GUIDE]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Importing Title Info Through XML (an alternate or additional cataloging process) ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | So you have created titles, given them clips, maybe added some cataloging information. Pretty good. But how about bulking up those catalog records some more? Maybe you have a group of titles that share a good deal of metadata. Maybe you want for do a bulk import. Let me walk you through that process. | ||
| - | |||
| - | *Please see the (non-existent) [[importingxml#importing_title_info_guide|IMPORTING TITLE INFO GUIDE]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== More? ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | So, is there any more to do in terms of title creation? Well, you can always refine, maybe writing a better summary, adding more subjects, a few more credits. And reference materials. You can add reference materials. Links to websites, pictures, pdfs, and the like. And so on. We will add more to this guide if we thing of anything else. Until then. | ||
