Salem Azzam was born in Cairo, Egypt, on the 8th of July, 1924. He established the ICE – Islamic Council of Europe, whose aim was to support the causes of the Muslim Ummah.
Net Ummah partnered with the family of Salem Azzam to archive all materials and build a website to honour his legacy.
Our task was fivefold:
The Result:
Preserving twentieth-century Islamic history.
The numerous audio recordings, photos and publications had to organised in a structured way.
The original supplied photos had scratches and other blemishes e.g. vertical streaks from old scans.
Photoshop was used to remove these imperfections via the Spot healing, Gaussian blur and FFT Filter tools.
The original supplied audio files were low in volume, contained extended pauses and lots of background noise.
Adobe Premiere Pro and Audition was used to improve the audio quality.
Original VHS video tapes and cassette audio tapes were digitised and optimised.
Examples of digitised work included:
Thousands of documents, photo albums and newspapers were digitised.
Examples of digitised work included:
The website in English and Arabic will be available soon insh’Allah.
