RE: Semantic Web for the Film Industry

The Linked Movie Database http://linkedmdb.org/ has a lot of data loaded and linked to other sites. It's available for downloading as a set of triples.
They do have their own ontology (RDF classes) but it may take a bit of hunting to find any documentation/RDF Schema for it: the home page does have a list of the classes though not the properties.
(I'm not involved with it in any way so don't expect me to field any questions on it).

Cheers
Pete

Subject: Semantic Web for the Film Industry

Dear all,

I'm hoping to begin postgraduate research looking into the use of Semantic Web technologies within the film industry. This will likely cover suitable ontologies and semantic markup that filmmakers should begin using as their industry moves further and further onto the web.
I'm interested in getting in touch with anyone else in the community who might be working on (or interested in) anything in a similar field.
I'm aware of the Web and TV IG but haven't yet managed to find anyone specifically looking at web technologies with regards to film.

Anyone interested in this area please feel free to drop me an email. I'm hoping to put together a group of web technologists for film that can collaborate and support each other's work.

Cheers,
