Cultur reports good progress in the video mapping of San Gervasio in Valladolid

Jueves 25 de Mayo de 2023

It involves a technical-scientific process and complicated design and production

Mérida, Yucatán, May 25, 2023. In relation to the note published today in its medium (Diario de Yucatán) with the title of "Wait of four months of a video mapping", in which it is indicated that in this project contemplated for the temple of San Gervasio it is not yet specified and that there are still no works or adaptations and equipment, Cultur wishes to specify the following:

It is important to note that projects of this nature require a series of processes, permits, production, etc., that take time, which began at the beginning of the year when it was announced.

For example, to install the booth where the equipment will be, which are very sophisticated, a permit is required, which after studying its location is granted. We have already worked, as a team with the authorities of INAH-Yucatan, and soon it will be obtained, so that construction can begin, in which we will have the support of the City Council of Valladolid.

While the above is being done, work has also been done in parallel on the production of the video that is practically ready, but it will also have to go through the approval of the aforementioned federal authority that is in the best disposition to support the project; They have already made some observations and the adjustments and adjustments are being processed, so that everything is as it should be and then it can be projected.

What does it mean to make a video mapping?

Doing a job of this magnitude is not as simple as it might seem, it requires a technical-scientific work such as producing the animated part, taking care that there is a perfect splicing of it with the audio or narration, and that all the images are consistent with the narrative.

The script requires research work and the music used has to be original, for the issue of copyright, so it must be commissioned to professionals for its production.

We understand that many people would like to see this cultural spectacle, and we ask for your understanding for the time it takes, but for all that it implies it has to be done with all the thoroughness it deserves. As an example is the videomapping of Dzibilchaltún that its creation took about 12 months.

Finally, it should be noted that this video mapping will be added to the existing ones of "Nights of Kukulkan", "Echoes of Uxmal", "Steps of Light" in Dzibilchaltún, "Paths of Light" in Izamal, "The Heroic Night" which is also in Valladolid, and "Nights of the Picheta Passage".

In short, it remains to say that there is already a good progress in this project and that soon people will be delighted with this cultural event that will be screened in the temple of San Gervasio.

They invite to report workplace violence that can cause serious health damage

Cultur employees were trained with a talk on this topic
Lunes 29 de Julio de 2024

Mérida, Yucatán, July 29, 2024. Cultur staff participated today in the talk "Workplace Violence" given by Lic. Aida María Borges Aguilar, Coordinator of the Ethics Committees of the General Comptroller's Office of the State of Yucatán (SECOGEY). In the event, which took place in room 2 of the Cines Siglo XXI, the speaker made it clear that anyone affected by this type of aggression, whether male or female, should approach their Gender Equality Unit or the Ethics Committee of the institution for advice and, if necessary, initiate the corresponding procedure. "You can also go directly to the State Prosecutor's Office to file a complaint, but sometimes it is better to have the support of the previous instances that involve a prior investigation and determination of whether there was workplace violence or not," she added. What is workplace violence? She indicated that for this concept to be established, there must be deliberate use of physical force or power and it must occur systematically among coworkers and superiors. "It could be an isolated case and not be workplace violence, but it still requires a different approach," she pointed out. She mentioned that workplace violence, also known as "mobbing" - just as there is bullying in schools - can be of three types: horizontal when it occurs among colleagues at the same level; downward vertical when it is promoted by a superior towards subordinates, and also upward vertical when employees exercise it against their superiors. "In this last form," she expressed, "we have mainly registered cases of female workers towards their female bosses who criticize their way of dressing or grooming, for example." She invited everyone present to seek more advice on this issue since sometimes they don't even know how to complain and therefore, sometimes, even if there is workplace violence, they cannot proceed because it is not clear what it consists of. Complaints, she emphasized, can be filed not only by women but by any person regardless of their gender or sexual orientation, so as to protect every human being. How is workplace violence exerted? This can be present not only in actions such as intimate harassment or offensive expressions but also when a worker is ignored either by giving them unimportant tasks that do not match their abilities or when they are simply ignored and left idle throughout the workday. What can workplace violence cause? It can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, frustration, helplessness, insomnia, fatigue, self-esteem issues, radical changes in behavior, and isolation of those affected. How can workplace violence be sanctioned? Those who engage in this type of aggression can be administratively sanctioned, labor-wise (dismissals), or even criminally, and there will always be a rigorous investigation to prevent injustices or personal vendettas. Finally, she invited anyone who wants to report any type of workplace violence to contact the speaker at 9999 30 38 00 Ext. 13011 or write to the email aida.borges@yucatan.gob.mx. After the talk, the participants and the speaker took a commemorative photo.
