[edit] 1 Scheme for giving credit in academic media
- presenter
- lecturer
- moderator
- mc (master of ceremonies, who introduces and/or proposes vote of thanks)
- interviewer
- interviewee
- creator
- publisher
The scheme should not replicate roles available here http://www.ebu.ch/en/technical/metadata/specifications/role_codes.php unless the meaning of the term is different. E.g. producer is an EBU code, and should not be replicated in http://purl.org/steeple/credit with the same meaning.
[edit] 2 Notes
For more details on the use of this scheme, see http://purl.org/steeple/media:credit.
One of the key things missing from rss/atom is a description of people appearing in the video, appropriate for academic contexts. The closet we can get to re-using existing structures is to use the media:credit construct, with a new scheme.
