The BUFVC Moving Image Gateway includes over 1,300 websites relating to video, multimedia and sound materials. These have been subdivided into over 40 subject areas. To suggest new entries or amendments, please contact us by email or telephone or visit the Gateway at http://bufvc.ac.uk/gateway/

EFG1914
Based on the achievements of the European Film Gateway, EFG1914 is a two year digitisation project relating to film from World War I, which aims to provide access to newsreels, documentaries, fiction films, propaganda films and anti-war films made after 1918, as well as non-moving image material such as stills, censorship cards and posters. Twenty-five partners, including twenty film archives, are working to provide online access to their material, via the European Film Gateway. Content providers include the Imperial War Museum, the Cineteca di Bologna, the Danske Filminstitut, the Jugoslovenska Kinoteca and the Estonian Filmarchives. The first fruits of the project – nearly 600 films – went online in March 2013 and can be accessed here. A list of the films digitised so far is available here here.

CERNPeople
This YouTube channel features sixteen short films made during 2012, portraying life at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. The films depict everyday life inside the laboratory, featuring interviews with scientists and technicians working on various projects, covering rivalries between different teams, the search for the Higgs Boson and the challenges faced by the ALPHA team in their quest to trap antimatter in the form of antihydrogen particles.

Cultures of Knowledge
This website is the result of a collaboration between the Humanities Division and the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford. The project aims, through an interdisciplinary approach, to analyse and explore the fertile and complex period in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, when early modern science began to take shape, and it aims to do this by focusing on the networks of learned correspondence from the period. In this way the project hopes to provide a unified way of approaching a subject which would otherwise – given the variety of its disciplines, professions, institutions and settings – be extremely daunting. One outcome of the project is a union catalogue – Early Modern Letters Online – currently available in a Beta version. A number of podcasts and videos document the proceedings of seminars, workshops, conferences and other meetings relating to the project.

Diabetes Stories
An oral history website which presents 100 interviews with people with diabetes, as well as their family members and health care professionals. The histories span people’s experiences from the 1920s – when insulin was first used as a treatment – to the early years of the 21st century, offering a unique record of how people have lived with the illness over the years. The interviews are presented with background notes, short audio samples and full interviews, which are divided into separate tracks and accompanied by full transcripts. The site is based at the Oxford Society for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism and is the result of two Wellcome Trust funded projects.

Irish Film & TV Research Online
This website brings together a wide variety of research material covering Irish-made and Irish-themed films and television programmes. It consists of the Irish Film & Television Index, Irish Film and Television Biographies and the Irish Film and Television Bibliography. Supplementing these resources are the digitised transcriptions of a number of Censor’s Record, which, as the site says provide “a unique insight into Irish social and cultural attitudes in the twentieth century”. Finally, a selection of nine early Irish films, which have been fully restored and digitised to a high standard, can be viewed, or downloaded from the site. The films, which were made between 1910 and 1915, are accompanied by full filmographic information, transcripts, references, detailed scholarly notes and links to other resources.
