Do you have strong opinions about Eastmancolor film stock or Technicolor? Video art? Celluloid triacetate? GIFs? Video compression file formats? Vinegar syndrome? Proper ways to handle film (and when to wear cotton gloves)?
Join the McGill Student Chapter of the Association of Moving Image Archivists (AMIA-McGill)! AMIA-McGill is dedicated to supplementing the MISt program with educational resources focused on the archiving and preservation of audio, visual, and moving image materials. We're organizing tours of local audiovisual archives, a speaker series, screening nights, and workshops.
As an AMIA member, you can participate in webinars on digitizing and preserving audio/visual media, get opportunities to handle film, and hopefully join us at our events, talks, and panels!
