This exercise includes an exploration of the Traditional Arts and Skills Theme which includes a variety of programs from Uluulu’s collections that highlight the kumu and master artisans of traditional skills and arts in Hawaii. * Important Note: It usually takes Uluulu about 24 hours during our open hours of Monday-Friday to provide links to full-length footage.

Who was the helpful archivist that you corresponded with? 3. Watch the Full Length File. Describe how the footage met or did not meet your research expectations by answering the following questions. Is the short clip online a good representation of the entire footage? Did the full-length footage provide more information about the subject? Was the full-length footage surprising in any way? How might this video be useful for researchers or filmmakers? 4. Save your exercise as a PDF with the filename lastname_cm402_exercise#.pdf. For example, my Exercise #1 would be named quirante_cm402_exercise1.pdf
