Abstract

In this paper, we pick up some available moving image archives in Japan and abroad. We then discuss the problems and possibility of the moving image archive for qualitative research from three viewpoints: using / making / sharing. From the viewpoint of "using" the moving image archive, we examine the advantages and problems of the method. The advantages include the exploitation of research materials and perspectives, and the elaboration of the methodology. The problems include the newness of the methodology, misunderstanding about the range of context, and the entireness of materials. Next, from the viewpoint of "making" a moving image archive, the advantages and problems are also discussed. It is very instructive for research practice that researchers experience archive construction. In addition, from the utility of the archive, a design suitable for research could be expected. Thirdly, the difficulty of "sharing" moving image archives including law revision is very hard to solve at the moment. It is to grope for a way of fair use that researchers network, and academic societies are possible. Lastly, we mention the need for research methodology for the specialized genres of moving image archives, and the development possibility of qualitative research.
