YOUR OWN SLICE

Interested in a particular genre, year, collection, television series...? We can produce statistics and visualisations for specific 'slices' of the archive. This can help you to zoom in on an interesting area, or to compare different parts of the archive. Some examples are shown below.

Do you want to know about a particular slice? As long as your slice can be defined in terms of the metadata in the archive, then it is possible to create these visualisations for it. Please contact rordelman@beeldengeluid.nl or mwigham@beeldengeluid.nl

Documentaries in the 70's and 00's

1970-1979

2000-2009

Of course, all the documentaries have the genre 'documentary'. However, a number also have additional genres, which can say something about the type of documentary. Such a comparison is not simple, however - it might appear that there is more focus on looking at societal issues (maatschappijprogramma) in the 00s, but it could also be that this genre only started to be used as a label in the 70s. Note also that programmes can have more than one genre, so the sum of the parts adds up to more than the whole. This means that you cannot make hard comparisons of the numbers, but they do give an indication.

Length of documentaries

Have documentaries got longer? The graphs below would seem to indicate so - but a large number of programmes either do not have their durations recorded, or have a duration of '0', so this information can't be taken at face value.
