Relevance level: from possibly relevant to actuallyrelevantWe first annotate concepts or topics by interpreting them in a verywide sense. For an image to receive a label, the concept does not needto appear prominently; as long as it visible or applicable at least tosome extent, this is already sufficient. We call the labels resultingfrom this level of annotation potential labels. These labelsshould capture all images that could possibly apply to the concept inreal searches. In this way they can act as a sort of greatest commondenominator for the concept, with the goal of making subsequentannotation of more narrow interpretations a lot faster.
You can go to Google, type in a few search terms and do an image search. You will find images, but there might be legal issues with using these images. You cannot just take an image that is someone else's creative product and use it. For a one time use that will not be made public, you can probably use the image with appropriate footnoting. However, the best solution is to find images that have a Creative Commons license and are available for use without charge for non-commercial purposes. Although there are different types of Creative Commons licenses requiring you to do different things to use the photo in your project, most only require an attribution giving credit to the author of the photo (more about that later.) If you find a photo that you like in Wikopedia, you can typically click on the picture to go to a page that will tell you if the photo is free for you to use. You can find Creative Commons photos by using the advanced search options of Google and Yahoo (click links for more information on how to do this.) Another great source for images is Flickr. We will discuss Flickr here because I think it could provide some useful materials for your projects. I did a really quick search for images using broad search terms for each of your video topics and found groups of images that might be useful to you.
Flickr is a photo-sharing site that allows to you upload your own photos and add comments, descriptions and tags to them to make sharing more useful. Flickr is also a place where you can go to find photos that other people have uploaded. Here we will look at how to use Flickr for finding free images to use. You can use Flickr to store and share photos that you might take with a camera while working on your projects. There is a very nice video screencast that gives you the rudiments of searching Flickr for photos to use in a project
The main drawback with the use of such systems is that they can only be used by subject specialist professional indexers, with it typically taking up to 40 minutes to assign terms to one image (Eakins and Graham 1999), and the terms that are attached to images are often far removed from the retrieval needs of the end users. Whilst this was not a problem with traditional analogue picture libraries where images would be retrieved by staff for the end users, it is however more of a problem with Web-based image databases where it is the end users themselves that search for the images they want. However Flickr does not utilize controlled vocabularies, thesauri, or specific classification schemes as it is not generally subject specialist professional indexers that are attaching key terms to the images on Flickr, it is normal everyday people. Shirky (2005) describes this change as heralding a philosophical shift in indexing, and Rafferty and Hidderley (2007) describe it as a shift from a monologic to a dialogic indexing practice.
Search Flickr also boasts an updated search feature that uses the same image intelligence, letting you find photos with more accuracy using new search algorithms. Advanced options let you filter the found photos by color, size, orientation (portrait or landscape), and content type (photo or video). 2b1af7f3a8
