Integrating our online resources: a new European Film Gateway in Making

The European Film Gateway (ECF) is a new 3-years project (started on 1st September 2008) and involving 20 partners from 14 European countries. The aim is to develop an online portal, providing direct access to about 790.000 digital objects including films, photos, posters, drawings, sound material and text documents. EFG is a Best Practice Network funded by the European Commission under the eContentplus programme, as part of the i2010 policy. The project is initiated by ACE (Association des Cinémathèques Européennes) and the EDL Foundation. The content will be provided mostly by film archives and cinémathèques, which are partners in the project.

The European Film Gateway will be linked to the Europeana portal - the European digital library, museum and archive providing integrated access to some 2 million digital objects, including film material, photos, paintings, sounds, maps, manuscripts, books, newspapers and archival papers. By making its archival content available through the common […]

"Here I was, a public face prepared to risk his life, career, and everything that fame could have brought, all because of one ideal, one cause; the Croatian cause."

A potent encapsulation of the fire burning in the Balkan belly, and one of the most infamous acts precipating the descent into chaos of the 1990s, Zvonimir Boban’s decision to kick out at a policeman during an infamous riot between the two most powerful football clubs in (the then) Yugoslavia captured…..

For your inspiration

Among hundred published projects in this section for your inspiration I selected a few of them.

 

The fact is that there’s a lack of tendency to archive and document cultural and artistic projects on our scene. And, although it seems that on the Internet everything could be reached, the truth is pretty opposite. Projects which have their websites or blogs often do not offer details inside of the project. At the same time, Internet offers so many information that the proverb "unable to see the woods for the trees" here fits perfectly. For this reason, here we are trying to offer trees but also descriptive structure. Projects which I suggest I find interesting because of the information they offer but also because of the topics which are in the center of their attention.
