The archives of Sound and Vision, the Filmmuseum, and the National Archive store an enormous amount of interesting, moving, historical, important, rare, and unknown material. Our national audiovisual heritage is contained by kilometers of storing shelves, bunkers, cellars, and safes. When a large part of these archives is digitized, these visual historical gems will be released. They will be given a new life, as educational material, as input for television programs, as web applications, as games, or as entertainment. The history of the Netherlands only truly comes to life with moving images and sound.
Starting point is realizing the broadest possible access to the content, both for developers and end users. For this reason, the partners work closely together to arrive at innovative use of the archival material.
Educational institutions, students, teachers, publishers, television and film makers, web designers, graphic designers, artists, software developers, internet providers, museums, theatres, heritage institutions, libraries, etc.; all will profit from easily accessible photos, videos, films, and sound fragments.
