NFSA training video for National Film Institute of PNG – excerpt

NFSA training video for National Film Institute of PNG – excerpt

    The NFSA and the National Film Institute (NFI) of Papua New Guinea (PNG) have co-designed a project to assist the NFI with preserving and storing their film archive, including digitising and returning PNG films at risk of destruction.

    As part of the project, then-NFI Director Michelle Baru Toro and Film Archivist Zoe Maya visited the NFSA in 2023 for a detailed training program in film handling and storage, conservation, digitisation, cataloguing, digital access and equipment maintenance. While at the NFSA, they co-designed two training videos, partly narrated in Tok Pisin, which the NFSA produced for NFI staff to use onsite at Goroka.

    Melinda Robertson introduces this training film about cleaning video decks.
