Some more details of BBC’s Creative Archive in this story…a presentation by Paula Le Dieu, co-director of the Creative Archive, the project to make BBC archived audio and video media available to the UK public so that they can download it and make creative works based upon it.
The BBC’s archive contains some 1.5 million items of television, equating to 600,000 hours of television – or put another way, 68 years of consecutive viewing. In addition to this is 500,000 audio recordings.
Dieu stressed that the Creative Archive is not just about the BBC — they want other content providers and broadcasters to get involved, and want to share what they have learned, and have still to learn, with them.
