Media Suite Spring Webinars

In the spring semester 2022, the CLARIAH Media Suite team offers a webinar series that introduces participants to working with the audiovisual collections, tools and methods made available in the Media Suite.

Each webinar starts with a theoretical introduction followed by a hands-on session. The series focusses on more advanced uses of its tools; from searching and bookmarking collections, to cross-media analysis and oral history scholarship, and qualitative and quantitative analysis using video and audio annotation and automated transcripts of media content.
