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.
