Metadata in TV Production: Associating the TV Production Process with Relevant Technologies

At each step in the production process the metadata to be collected and used has different characteristics. Possible metadata processing is listed for the major steps in TV production with an indication of the benefits and overheads at each point. Some of the metadata formats that are suitable and optimized for broadcasting are briefly described, with the key technologies of XML, MXF, and AAF being identified. A table of the production process is used to show how we can store and use the metadata at each stage.
