FILMEU_RIT - Research | Innovation | Transformation

01.09.2021 - 31.08.2024
Responsible executor: Teet Teinemaa

FILMEU_RIT brings together four European Higher Education Institutions: UL - Lusófona University from Lisbon, Portugal; LUCA School of Arts from Brussels, Belgium; and IADT - Dún Laoghaire Institute of Art Design and Technology, from Dublin, Ireland and TLU BFM - Baltic Film, Media and Arts School of Tallinn University. Together, these institutions collaborate around the common objective of jointly promoting high-level research, innovation and educational activities in the multidisciplinary field of Film and Media Arts and, through this collaboration, consolidate the central role of Europe as a world leader in the creative fields.
FILMEU_RIT will increase the Alliance’s competitiveness and reinforce its ability to develop activities that span all the areas of the knowledge square: education, research, innovation, and service to society, while helping the creative sector to affirm its potential for innovation and resilience in a post COVID-19 context.
FILMEU_RIT will develop a common R&I agenda for artistic research supported by common resources and joint structures that will increase talent attraction and the impact of the research developed amidst the alliance. Such impact seeks to promote greater engagement of society and business with art and creativity in order to increase European competitiveness and its artistic R&I profile.
FILMEU_RIT’s main objective is the capacitation, in Research and Innovation terms, of the individual HEIs that integrate the Alliance via the joint design of strategies and action plans that ensure the transformation of the future European University into an Institution that puts Research and Innovation in the fields of Film and Media Arts at the centre of its activities and operates as a highly valuable critical cultural intermediary.

ScreenME-Net - Twinning for Sustainable and Visible Excellence in Screen Media Entrepreneurship Scholarship

01.01.2021 - 31.12.2023
Responsible executor: Ulrike Rohn
Project coordinator: Elena Stern

The objective of the ScreenME-Net project is to enhance excellence in screen media entrepreneurship scholarship at Tallinn University (TLU), to increase its networking position and visibility in this scholarly field, and to ensure sustainability of the impact of this project, mainly through the institutionalization of a screen media entrepreneurship research hub, the so-called ScreenME-Hub, at TLU. In terms of enhancing excellence in scholarship, the project aims at positively impacting all four pillars of scholarship (Boyer, 1990): discovery, integration, teaching and application. The objectives will be achieved through networking and collaboration activities with an interdisciplinary set of internationally-leading research institutions with strong expertise in entrepreneurship teaching and research as well as in various academic disciplines and scholarly areas of high relevance to understanding current dynamics in media industries and their wider societal effects.

EKKD119 - Application of automatic language processing in the ERR archive: modeling relationships between entities in an archive query based on link data 

1.03.2023  - 31.03.2024
Responsible executor: Andres Kõnno

This is a follow-up application to the grant EKKD84. The main outputs of that preceding project were (1) the generation of new metadata using the BERT language model to perform entity detection and (2) a prototype that enables to use the linked entities to perform novel kinds of queries.
In the new project we would like to continue the development of archive functions based on syntactic analysis of Estonian texts, as well as to enlarge the available text corpus. Above all, we have in mind the identification of entities and the relations between them in Estonian texts. This will form an input for the implementation of the link data standard for the ERR archive on an even larger scale. The aim is to create a new kind of dataset for the study of a wide range of relationships, with novel functionalities aimed at the general public as well as at more specific stakeholders (journalists, educators, researchers, etc.).
