| Summary: | 碩士 === 世新大學 === 廣播電視電影學研究所(含碩專班) === 98 === With the approach of the digital age, knowledge and information dispersal follows the era’s practical tend in demanding effectiveness. With the technology available in the digital era, the trend of digitizing information is inevitable. Not only did this induce revolutionary changes in hardware, the development of related software also calls for a different mindset and logic.
The establishment of Taipei City Government (TCG) Department of Information and Tourism’s “Digital Image Archive” is the result of this new kind of thinking. In accordance with related information digitalization and digital archive policies, TCG began works on creating a digital audio and visual platform. The objective of the platform is to integrate real-time nonlinear editing system, digital database, and search engine for efficient usage. Furthermore, this will encourage the establishment of common multimedia platform and related applications, allowing efficient management and utilization by affiliated agencies of the city government and by the public, thereby achieving the goal of government information transparency.
Through the implementation of the project in real-life situation, we discover that “multimedia” encompasses a wide range of creations spanning audio and visual expressions; the definition of the term changes with the era, with the technological knowhow of the specific period accounting for the differences. The application of this project focuses on audio and visual information, excluding the procedures of filming and emphasizing on the stages of post-processing – compression, file conversion, and storage.
By executing this project, we hope to push forth with the development of a digital audio-visual platform to achieve the following goals: integrate the audio and visual data from the departments of city government; promote the management and effective use of audio and visual data; expand the use of multimedia applications with added values; strengthen city marketing efforts; shorten the production time of multimedia materials; and establish a standardized exchange/application process for audio and visual materials.
This paper attempts to offer suggestions regarding the future “multimedia platform” focusing on the training of staff, the upgrading of equipments, and the management and utilization of data. Hopefully, the establishment of the audio and visual platform will stimulate interaction between government agencies and the private sector, achieving the goal of “zero distance.”
