Moving from hi-res to hi-speed scanning can lower the cost of digitization significantly and democratize selection by creating a demand-based hi-res scanning. Thomas Prehn explains how.

3. STRATEGIC PAINS
Still expensive: Both digitization process and storage expenses for
scanned materials!
What to scan: Poor knowledge of archive quality – both content
and film decay
10-15 pct of digitized material is re-used: How to boost usage and
how to lower storage prices of the material not re-used?
Re-digitization is still necessary: Formats and devices change and
the need for different formats and higher resolution follows

8. CLOUD IS THE LIMIT
The Cloud is endless: Unlimited storage capacity
Unlimited access to digitized matetials: Share with production people,
partners, and third party vending platforms
Live updated data: Productivity statistics and workflow process

9. STRATEGIC BENEFITS
No need for prioritization: Digitize everything while doing registration of
material
No changes in work processes: We’re tapping in to existing hardware and
workflow
Seamless access: Viewing-files and metadata are stored and shared through
the cloud
Ad hoc Hi-Res Scanning: Software-based workflow and MAM are applicable
with most third-party scanners and services, and enables fast and easy redigitization
