Reframing Vivien Leigh

, | , , ,
The omeka site is the central hub for the majority of project outputs and has created a significant new interactive public platform collating information and new research about Vivien Leigh in the South West, hosting a wide range of digitised artefacts and exhibitions. The site has created digital tools for collaborating museums The Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Topsham Museum, including 3D models of dress artefacts from their collections and new public-facing tools such as a Storymap and a series of podcasts foregrounding their work and their holdings that can be utilised by them in their own digital and on-site platforms. The site currently hosts 186 catalogued items; 6 collections; 47 tags, and 6 exhibits. The database constitutes a detailed new resource for public and academic users able to access detailed metadata on original archival artefacts connected to the region; to search the database through keywords making their own pathways through the content; to view artefacts in different contexts through exhibitions, Storymap and podcasts outputs, and to interact with images, audio, text, 3D platforms, interactive maps and videos.

Pinter Histories and Legacies: The Impact of Harold Pinter’s Work on the Development of British Stage and Screen Practices (1957-2017).

The ambition of this database has been to capture every instance of a professional production of a work by Harold Pinter in the UK since 1957 alongside a comprehensive catalogue of all broadcasts of his work for radio and television, and films for which he has written a screenplay. In addition, we have included plays, films and so on that Pinter directed or acted in.

The project website is a major output of the project. It is a MySQL database containing tables on venues, people, companies, films, newspaper and trade press articles. The venues and film locations (mainly for non-fiction Scottish films) are georeferenced. This is used to generate map markers to display on the public page, allowing users to click through from the map to otherinformation in the database. We have used the underlying data in other ways - classifying and comparing layers in response to specific research questions - so we intend to make the raw data available for other film historians. However the 'front end' of the web site will present a simpler interface for public access, with just venues and film locations.
