AHFAP Conference 2021 - Call for Papers

---

AHFAP will be holding the 2021 annual conference virtually again this year, on Wednesdays 3rd, 10th, 17th and 21st of November. This is a call for expressions of interest to make a presentation.

We welcome papers and presentations on projects, experiments and cross-sector subjects within our discipline. Subjects can range from photogrammetry to project-management, camera or scanner in flat copy work, educational outreach success stories, specific technical challenges, such as silver or glass in a gallery, consistency in colour standards or custom profiles in digital asset management schemes. We would also be interested in the changes experienced through the pandemic that will have a lasting impact on our working practices to better equip us all for the future.

The scope is much wider than it at first appears. We hope that those of you who have never considered giving a presentation but are working on an interesting project will come forward. Even if you haven’t prepared anything yet we would still love to hear from you.
