Week #12: PACA

Doug Dawirs of PACA will be visiting our class on Wednesday Dec. 1st and will go over the following:

PACASEARCH (Picture Archive Council of America Search) is the worlds largest index of licensable photography. Launched earlier this year, PACASEARCH is getting raves from professional art buyers and photo researchers. It's also a great research tool for photographers, designers and stock agencies. (Latest news: Alamy and Veer came on board last week which pushed the total number of images in the PACASEARCH index to over 100 million.) Knowing about this incredibly fast and simple search engine makes the most difficult image quest almost fun.

The PLUS (Picture License Universal Standard) Registry is about to be publicly launched and I'll be showing the beta version now under test. The PLUS Coalition is an international non-profit initiative on a mission to simplify and facilitate the communication and management of image rights. PLUS holds the key to how artists monetize their creative works. The PLUS Artist Registry is just one link in the chain but plays a critical role when tracking down an artist.  The PLUS Image Registry (which is still under development) is a global registry for commercial images.
