Our department at MoMA is named Imaging Services. I have overall responsibility for the department and my title is Head of Collections Imaging. I?m involved primarily with policy, budgets, project management, technical research, & staffing issues. Our other management position, Production Manager, is responsible for job assignments to photographers and scanning staff, clarifying curatorial requests, scheduling, QA, resolving technical issues, guiding jobs to completion.
Non-management positions include: Assistant Collections Photographer (primarily copystand work) Collections Photographer (images all collection works and installation views) Senior Collections Photographer (exceptional quality and productivity. Most difficult assignments) [All photographers do their own color corrections.] Production Assistant (bit of a misnomer, really more an Admin Assistant. Clerical and bookkeeping work including POs, vouchers, end of month reports, organization of incoming jobs, etc.) Digital Imaging Technician: archiving of daily image production, reformatting, migration, metadata check. Senior Archiving Technician: another misnomer needing re-titling: performs flatbed scanning and color correction of archival materilas (non-permanent collection). Senior Digital Image Archivist: Our DAM gatekeeper. researches metadata standards, works with IT to organize and maintain DAM folder structure, vets image submissions for internal standards compliance. Serves as liaison to our outside Rights and Repro agencies.
