Abstract: This paper describes a metadata schema standard for moving images created to service those in the cultural heritage field. It details the rationale behind a standardisation effort driven by an international community of moving image archives and the benefits of using EN 15907 to manage moving image media assets. A case study from the British Film Institute describes the process of creating a consolidated repository, with their EN 15907-structured database acting as the metadata store and a digital asset management system to manage storage, transcode, delivery, etc of the moving image media assets.
