Audio and video is difficult to search. AVAnnotate makes audio and video artifacts easily discoverable.
This “Get Started” section outlines the basics of developing an AVAnnotate project, from the foundational concepts to to helpful tips and tricks. The quick start offers a step-by-step; the glossary outlines the terms and concepts needed to work through a project; details about uploading events and annotations are included in the spreadsheet templates; and helpful tips and tricks are last.
AVAnnotate is a system for creating, organizing, and publishing collections of annotations for audio and video resources, making these artifacts easily discoverable and searchable.
Created by Dr. Tanya Clement, Brumfield Labs, and Performant Software Solutions, AVAnnotate is a free and open source workflow and application for sharing annotations of audio and video artifacts and making digital exhibits and editions with AV materials.
The Monster Mash Documentation Project is a sample project that demonstrates what kinds of pages are possible for AVAnnotate project authors to make. The screenshots and visual how-to’s throughout this documentation are based on the Monster Mash project, so audiences can view the how-to’s (which visualize the back-end/editing interface) alongside the published project.
