The research group met the management team of the Archivio Cinema Friuli Venezia Giulia of the Cineteca del Friuli (Gemona), longstanding partner of the University of Udine. The SAFE project has been introduced, underlining the three research axis and how the archive could be involved as a case study.
The Cineteca del Friuli showed interest in participating to the qualitative and quantitative survey, with a particular interest for the digital preservation topic since the staff considers it is the biggest challenge the archive currently has to face. Furthermore, the experience of the Cineteca in term of passive conservation of film collections is particularely relevant for the SAFE project. Thanks to the generosity of the Cineteca del Friuli, the staff members actively participated to the first meta-design workshop on Archival Infrastructures.
