Artifact 1 | Digital Image Capture

Project Description: RFH,JR_HOLDING RHW_MAR.1944_EditIn INSC 562: digital curation, I digitized two document types, a newspaper clipping and a black and white photograph. This was done following standards and conventions in the Cornell University Library’s Moving Theory into Practice: Digital Imaging Tutorial. I prepared a report based on my experience completing the digital image capture assignment The picture and newspaper clipping scanned and edited for the project are pictured right.

RHW_NJS_Wedding Announcement_editThis project provided me the opportunity to experiment with creating digitized surrogates of non-digital objects based on good practice guidelines. I also gained hands-on experience manipulating images with Adobe Photoshop, practicing proper file naming, and choosing the best file format when creating a digital surrogate.
