Hi hello! It's been a few months since I've updated this blog, but I've been busy. Right now, I'm busy teaching a 4-week workshop to students at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign all about a/v preservation tools. Part of their work requires them to group together and make descriptive metadata records for an "preservation-quality file" (in this case, we are using a clip from the ubiquitous [Big Buck Bunny](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Buck_Bunny), though, to cut down on size constraints and processing time). They'll make an "access copy" with FFmpeg, an extraction of the audio track with FFmpeg, and extract file metadata for all three files using MediaInfo. Then, they'll use PBCore Cataloger to add the technical metadata as "instantiation records" for each of the video objects. They'll also have to consider file-naming conventions and validation as part of this project.

I'm going to go step-by-step through all of this work here, because I just did this as a full demo for the class last week.
