DCP, Orphans TV

It’s April 21, 2023. Time to begin the Orphan Film Symposium: All-Television at UCLA.  The UCLA Film & Television Archive team put together this Digital Cinema Package of objects born on videotapes and films. John H. Mitchell Television Curator (Mark Quigley!) sent this photo of the DCP today.  The symposium originated as a film preservation event, but it’s always incorporated television (and video, audio, and digital). The 1999 event included this panel: Television and Video Preservation • Linda Tadic (then director of the U of Georgia Media Archive and Peabody Awards Collection, and president of AMIA) “Archiving Local TV Stations” • Steve Davidson
