GIF IT UP 2024
When
-Where
OnlineGIF IT UP is an annual GIF-making competition run in October by Europeana. The purpose is to create new digital content out of digitised heritage items that are in the public domain or openly licensed.
We’re challenging our community to get creative using public domain images available in Trove. This year’s theme is journeys and we’ve created a list of transport-related images to get you started.
Remember to join the conversation on Facebook and X (Twitter) to share the GIFs you’ve made using Trove images.
