The session began with a review of the batches of negatives pending digitization. The Oldskoolimages team identified three priority collections: a series of advertising portraits from 1962, a set of industrial photographs from a textile factory in Avellaneda, and a group of slides from graphic campaigns for a tire brand. Each batch requires a different scanning treatment, with specific color adjustments to preserve the original tones.
The indexing criteria for the images were discussed. Instead of using generic tags, it was agreed to create metadata fields that include the context of the original shot, the photographer's name when available, and the type of campaign for which the image was produced. This facilitates the advanced searches that advertising agencies need when working with very specific briefs.
Another item on the agenda was the update of licensing terms for corporate clients. Territorial usage periods were adjusted, and a new volume-based package scheme was defined, which will come into effect next quarter. The idea is to offer more flexibility to media agencies that need to download large amounts of material in short production periods.
To close the meeting, the month's delivery schedule was reviewed. The priority is to complete the digitization of the advertising portrait batch before the end of the month, as several agencies have shown interest in that collection for seasonal campaigns. The remaining batches will follow in order according to the demand recorded on the B2B portal.
