Meta-data Handling Since the early days of film and television, meta-data such as shot number, slate information and other pro- duction notes has been used increasingly during the production process. While much of this data has been generated and stored on paper, the use of computers for storage and management of meta-data has grown significantly. However the lack of a unique identifier for each segment of material recorded on the filed tape has made it difficult to link this meta-data to the actual
