German film exile during National Socialism, 1933-1945, has always been a complex subject to research because of the scattered nature of the sources in the international distribution of archives (Asper, Horak, Hilchenbach). It remains challenging to reconstruct the worldwide dispersed separate flight routes of more than 3000 individuals who worked for the German film industry before 1933. This contribution concerns a list of film exiles collected by the exile researcher and filmmaker Günter Peter Straschek (1942-2009), whose collection of files belongs to the _German National Library, German Exile Archive 1933-1945, Frankfurt am Main_ and was inventoried according to their Normdata. To this end, a database of GND exile data containing names, birth and death dates, professions, and countries of exile was compiled and enriched with data from online resources (Wikidata and IMDb). How can a more comprehensive look at the data reveal the devastating loss for German film (2) and, on the other hand, the collaboration on the flight (3) showing exiles remaining defiant? By incorporating new data from the Straschek Estate, digital methods further enhance historical research findings.},

They served as an important means of visualizing the world for audiences in the way the Soviet authorities wanted it to be depicted. Studies in Soviet visual culture have recognized both continuities of repeating patterns and changes in the post-World War II period. This understanding is based primarily on temporally limited source selections, while a more systematic study of the developments in Soviet visual culture over a longer period is pending. In this article, we reveal long-term continuities, subtle changes, and sudden shifts in the official visual discourse in the Soviet newsreel series ‘Novosti dnia’ (News of the Day) 1945 to 1992. We study visual patterns in approximately 1,700 digitized newsreel issues, each about ten minutes long, using multidimensional vector embeddings. These embeddings, produced from the central frames of 205,678 shots, help visually evaluate the footage and assess visual similarities based on ResNet50 feature vectors. For this, we use the _Collection Space Navigator_ tool. The article demonstrates how multidimensional vector embeddings can be used to study the internal time of the films, and the external time of the years running by.},

abstractNote={Die Arbeit untersucht die Standards der Erschließung von Filmen mit RDA und FRBR im internationalen Vergleich sowie die Perspektiven der Standardisierung für den Austausch und die Vernetzung von Daten. Filme stellen bereits einen bedeutenden Teil der Bestände in öffentlichen Bibliotheken dar. Sie sind auch für wissenschaftliche Bibliotheken von wachsender Bedeutung. Neben Filmeditionen auf Vervielfältigungsträgern werden Filme zunehmend per Video-Streaming zugänglich gemacht. Bei der Katalogisierung ist bislang der Anteil manueller Erfassung von Daten und intellektueller Erschließung hoch; Angaben zu Filmen werden in den Katalogdatensätzen meist auf der Ebene der Titelaufnahmen aggregiert und in Datensätzen redundant erfasst. Der Austausch und die Verknüpfung von Film-Metadaten stellt eine Herausforderung für die Zukunft dar. 2015/2016 wurde das Regelwerk Resource Description and Access im deutschsprachigen Bereich flächendeckend eingeführt. Die Studie untersucht, inwiefern die RDA-Anwendungsrichtlinien für Deutschland, Österreich und die Schweiz den Erfordernissen des Mediums Film in Bezug auf die Standards der Erschließung ausreichend Rechnung tragen. Bestandteil der Masterarbeit ist die Recherche spezifischer Standards zur Erschließung von AV-Inhalten und deren vergleichende Analyse. Als Grundlage für den Vergleich dienen u.a. die RDA-Anwendungsrichtlinien der Library of Congress (LOC) und des Programms der Kooperativen Katalogisierung der LOC sowie Empfehlungen der Online Audiovisual Catalogers (OLAC). Ferner werden archivische Standards und Regelwerke beim Vergleich berücksichtigt wie Cinematographic Work Standard EN 15907, The FIAF Moving Image Cataloguing Manual (2016) sowie Standards der Filmindustrie und Konventionen der filmografischen Dokumentation.},
