moving image preservation

Moving image preservation involves safeguarding films, videos, and digital recordings so they remain accessible over time. This process includes caring for original materials, preventing deterioration from environmental factors, and creating high-quality copies or digital versions. Preservation ensures that future generations can study, enjoy, and learn from visual media, maintaining cultural, historical, and artistic value. It combines scientific techniques, proper storage, and digital technology to extend the lifespan of moving images beyond their natural decay, fostering ongoing access and research.
