This post almost presupposes that you know what an International Standard Audiovisual Number (ISAN) is. And no, Thailand has no relationship to the term in any sense.

If you do not have any familiarity with an ISAN, then very briefly, it is a numeric designation assigned to absolutely any sort of audiovisual work that will render it unique amongst all other audiovisual works. Thus, if ever the title of the work is changed (as in translation into another language), or if some other work uses an exact or very similar title, the ISAN will be the reference point to ensure that there will be a basis for never confusing one work from another. Note that this reference number is entirely voluntary — it certainly is not required that anyone register their work in this system. But because the system is internationally recognized and because the specific number for any one work is unique, then national boundaries or language barriers will never be an issue in identification of a said work.

An ISAN may be applied to all types of audiovisual works including motion pictures and short films, trailers, video games, productions for television or other means of delivery, including individual episodes of television series; industrial, educational and training films; commercials; broadcasts and recordings of live events (such as sports events and newscasts); and composite and multimedia works if they contain a significant audiovisual component.

The ISAN code itself is a “dumb” number, meaning that it does not include any signifying elements. Its purpose is to uniquely identify the work, and always relates and provides descriptive information about the audiovisual content.

The ISAN identifies works, not publications (unlike the ISBN for books) nor right holders. It has no relationship to copyright registration, nor is it evidentiary in issues of ownership. However, the ISAN remains the same for an audiovisual work regardless of the various formats in which the work is distributed (e.g. DVD, video recording) or its use.

ISAN International Agency

The ISAN system is administered by the ISAN International Agency, located in Geneva, Switzerland.

As the ISAN International Agency we have the responsibility of the overall ISAN system maintenance and administration.

We are a service organization and our mission is to implement ISAN as a new ISO standard (15706) and ensure full compliance by ourselves and all Registration Agencies with the ISO norm.

In order to fulfill our mandate, the ISAN International Agency will do the following:

  • Create a network of appointed Registration Agencies

    We will appoint and oversee the work of Registration Agencies which will be authorized to receive and process applications for ISAN and allocate ISAN to the audiovisual works. Registration agencies will be located in different geographical areas to distribute the registration process and to provide a local support for ISAN users.

  • Develop an IT architecture to store ISAN metadata and allow usage by RAs We provide the system and infrastructure to maintain a central repository of unique ISAN and their associated descriptive information. Every Registration agencies is connected to this central system to allocate and query ISAN’s.This system will facilitate the review and resolution of duplicative works application.

     

  • Develop, monitor and implement policies and procedures

    We will develop, monitor and enforce policies and procedure governing the operations of ISAN registration agencies and the process of ISAN registration by those agencies.

  • Implement generic marketing strategies

    We develop generic marketing strategies to create industry and public awareness of ISAN and to provide support to our network of Registration Agency.

    We will define guidelines which support the industry in using ISAN during the whole life cycle of an audiovisual work.
