Description

"Intelligent Television has begun to establish a new Open Education Video Studio to cost-effectively produce more video resources for the open education and open content movement. The objectives of the Studio—based in New York but networking educational production facilities across the United States and abroad—are threefold:

  • to evaluate the use of video in teaching and learning;
  • to catalyze video production for education; and
  • to build new tools—editing, annotation, search—for more cost-efficient video production and distribution.

The Studio has begun hosting planning meetings for educators, technologists, video producers, investors, attorneys, underwriters, and other stakeholders who are helping Intelligent Television articulate a sustainability plan for the studio’s new productions and research and development projects. In November 2007, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation hosted the Studio’s West Coast launch. In April 2008, the New York Public Library hosted the Studio’s East Coast launch.

In June 2008, at Columbia University, educators, librarians, archivists, and producers gathered to discuss innovative approaches to producing new video and making available legacy moving-image assets about Harlem.

In the years ahead, Intelligent Television will deploy the Studio to organize new multi-institutional productions involving consortia of universities, libraries, museums, and production entities, and through such productions build a new and distributed educational video production network. Through the Studio, Intelligent Television also will help establish a new form of educational video commons and help to define best practices in educational video access and preservation."
