greetings -
An interesting concept has come up in the recent *torrent* of activity in 'Crisiscommons', as per: www.crisiscommons.org, to use Kaltura as a way to crowdsource video annotation within structured Drupal workflow. The overall concept is to have officials have a camera rolling when people enter the refugee camps and/or clinics in Haiti, have them stand in front of the camera, state their name, who they are looking for, and other important information. This in turn would get chopped up into segments, and farmed out to Internet volunteers to annotate/translate/transcribe, and integrated with the Personfinder database, as per: http://www.crisiscommons.org/FRS, and other important sources the Internet volunteers determine the info should get routed to. Ditto for the Haiti orphan project.
Are they any people knowledgable in Kaltura listening that are interested? we are just bootstrapping, but all recognize the potential...
Thanks!
Chris Nicholas
What level of effort (man-days/wks/months) would you estiaate a bare-bones system for collaborative transcriptions, based on this apparently amazing system?
What does your schedule look like today (Saturday), and how can you be reached? Ideally would love to sync with various CrisisCamp people throughout the country/world via Skype, conf bridge, etc for a reality check...
Can you add your thought to the Video thread in our discussion on this topic at http://groups.google.com/group/crisis-workflows- ?
thank you!
