Overview
The Big Picture
Digital archiving is not a passing fad. Organizations worldwide have discovered that digital imaging not only helps to preserve and extend the reach of their collections far better than film ever could; it can also create new ways for the images to be used. Moreover, these new digital assets can be easily cataloged and utilized in a variety of profitable applications. Despite its ubiquity, however, digital acquisition is also complex and unique to each institution’s needs.
A strategy, not a device.
We understand that digitizing collections is not about cameras and computers. It’s about developing a strategy for migrating collections and data from older to newer systems. Digital Transitions can help you create a migration strategy that will ensure the creation of usable, reliable digital assets. Our unique approach satisfies the competing demands for access, convenience and conservation, while maximizing the return on your investment.
Our Division of Cultural Heritage is headed by Peter Siegel, who has served the digital photographic production needs of museums, libraries, archives and cultural institutions — including the American Museum of Natural History and Harvard University Art Museums and Fine Arts Library — for over 15 years.
Your needs come first.
At Digital Transitions, we have made it our business to understand the needs and goals of cultural and educational institutions—we meet or exceed them. We work closely with you to design a total solution—including the hardware, software and training—that will help streamline your tasks and optimize your digital investment.
We have the sales and service staff necessary to make every step in the acquisition of a digital photography system an easy one. That’s because our team supports customers instead of pushing product. It’s our focus on the future and our long-term relationships that have enabled us to achieve consistent award-winning results as an industry leader.
From analog to digital
Making the transition from film to digital can be challenging. For most cultural and educational institutions, money is tight, but the institution’s reputation—and its collection—cannot be compromised. There’s only one chance to get it right. If you want digital assets that can stand the test of time, you need to make the correct investment upfront.
Commitment That Runs Deep
Our knowledge and experience in collections reformatting can make your digital transformation to new hardware and software solutions faster, easier and more cost-efficient. But the relationship doesn’t end there.
The relationships we forge with clients extend through the sale to installing your new imaging systems, training your staff, refining workflows, solving your technical issues, keeping you current with information, and updates. We even offer the ability to “trade up” to the latest technology as it becomes available.
