Celluloid Archive Digitisation & LTO Vault
Preservation-grade scanning ingest, cataloging, metadata tagging, and long-term digital vault packaging for historic film libraries.
Technical Scope & Production Workflow
Historic film negatives, magnetic tapes, and sound recordings face irreversible physical decay if left in unconditioned vaults. GenAI Studio provides museum-grade archive digitisation, technical cataloging, automated metadata tagging, and long-term LTO tape vault packaging.
We manage the ingestion of high-resolution frame scans up to 16-bit color depth, systematically tagging footage with automated facial recognition indexing, speech-to-text dialogue transcripts, and technical provenance metadata.
Our digital preservation protocols conform strictly to International Federation of Film Archives (FIAF) standards, outputting uncompressed preservation masters onto magnetic LTO-8/LTO-9 archival tapes and geo-redundant encrypted cloud vaults designed to last for decades.
