Keywording & Metadata
All right. Key wording. We did key wording this morning. I showed you. Did I show you? I guess I did it myself. Shoki warning what we'd be doing. So I don't know the wording, SFO, right. We want we want to call this golden Gate. Um, we want to call this landscape water. All right? We want to set it. Set a bunch of different keywords so that later I can search by certain keywords if I want to grab all my water shots, anything that has water in the boom, there's there's my water shots, anything that those from San Francisco trips Boom. Um, you know, if I want to put can do on a can, there's a shut out of the shot it would can do right? Don't Libby typically don Libya. You don't want to use the ones down Libby you shot with because he's punching you and doing crazy things to. But there's some chatter will be happy. Hi, guys. So if you want to know who shot it with and I doesn't matter, but adding key words here shift clicking copy and apply your keywords said the images shot all all durin...
g that. That one's one job importantly, you can go in and then save these presets. So it's a very you said user preset for keywords. Absolutely want to save user presets. So clients that need keywords, I will tell you, we have clients. Um, Turner Broadcasting in the land. Turner Broadcasting shoots and owns a cartoon network, TNT. Turner, Turner. Ah, whatever Television they They have a lot of different companies that they shoot for when they import them. These files in for that one company. It's a sub company under Turner Broadcasting. They want to import with those keywords already. They want import with their meditate already. So they import with the keyword preset in the import with the metadata. The copyright information for that. For that, um, that network that makes sense. You know what time that saved? And later, when this came out, what we could do, meditate, import and keyword. They asked for this for a long time, and it's there. So I absolutely want to make presets for something. So think outside the box why you'd need them. Think about your shooting situation and why you need those keywords at a preset for you. I mean, I can imagine that you would have some that for that model, right? Sure. What about the copyright for the model? Do you have the model release in the model based Owen? All right, get model races. You get it for a year in two years. And the reason that you want that in the metadata, would you not? I would think so. Yeah. I mean, I don't, but yeah, I'm actually very informal. Gunmen attacked me, and I'm trying to get more involved in its benefits of it. Well, I can tell you for certain when we're shooting in studio, and we've hired that model in studio. We know that the agency said you could only use these for two years, right? And I don't blame them. That's what they do. So how do I know in the file itself in the image asset? How do I know that I've got a model released for only two years. Your keyword it, you put it in here. You put in the metadata so incredibly important to put that in there. I'm on a huge so soapbox when it comes to putting these keywords and metadata and huge. We've developed a huge well, hopefully will be huge with Delta software Company that goes live this month about meditation. Um, so use it. Put it in. It's gonna be more important, and more information is good.

Yes, per some other reviews this started slow. What turned me off was the sales spiel for the class. It also came across as a sales schtick for C1, which is ok given the presenter. Stuck with it (well most of it, had to step away at times) and found it useful. I've had my eye on C1 for a LONG time. I'm not a pro, but would consider myself a pretty serious amateur. I document old mining and narrow gauge steam engines, general travel and now do our product photography (started a new company, so all $ goes to that rather than C1, which I would LOVE to own after seeing C9). Went with Aperture back in the day because of its cataloging and price. Back then C1 didn't have cataloging, though it DID have a 2 tier price structure...(Phase WHY did ya'll do away with this?????). Back to the class. After lunch on the first day I think they found their stride. Second day, especially Nino in the afternoon was quite good. That was probably my fav session. Seemed like most questions came from the in-studio "captive" audience. Expected more from the web? Constructive feedback. 1) Could have condensed things down quite a bit. I liked the more casual approach it took later on first day and on the second day. Dave especially seemed more at ease. 2) Ya'll (Dave especially) seemed to have his topics scripted out. Given the two day nature of this, would have been nice to give the attendees an idea of agenda/timeslots for topics up front. If an agenda/timeline was presented...I totally missed it. But then, I couldn't back up or rewind the live stream when I had to step away several times... if I paused it jumped to the realtime stream :-( 3) C Lve was pushing the "free trial download"...isn't there already a trial download from Phase? What value are ya'll offering in this area above what they offer? I found this annoying, if there's an extended trial period or something through ya'll cool. If not...I'm back to the annoying aspect of it. 4) Nino, get a Cintiq :-) If C1 doesn't have a profile for Cintiq (I'm going to download the trial from Phase) Phase you need to add support for it. 5) Dave's material he presented should be in vids on his website to help him expand his C1 market..fantastic selling tool there Dave....or even better....embedded in the product itself (ala SilverFast). Phase, you listening? 6) Nino, given he's coming from a different angle, eg no skin in selling C1?, he could do a 3-5 hour intensive vid(s) and I'd pay something for that. YMMV but I liked his approach and presentation. Was disappointed no C1 on his YouTube :-( Would I pay 99.00 for this class? Honestly, no. We use 3D graphics (ZBrush) and CAD (Rhino) in our company and have been learning those over the last year. To compare. There is another tutorial company whose name I shall not mention (no, it does not start with an 'L') that specializes in vid classes for those and other 3D products. They structure their offerings on a AFFORDABLE monthly/6mos/yearly all-you-can-eat fee structure. Much more consumer friendly, and quite honestly their videos are very focused and about 4-6 hours per course. I don't see myself paying 99.00 much less 129.00 for just one course like this (especially with the sales spiel content) when other companies have a more customer friendly consumption model. A value for the $ thing. In the end I did learn some things, and I'm glad I watched what I could of it. And yeah, I'm pretty sure after this review I just got taken off the free C1 license contention list...but I'm just being honest...Dave, I will be ordering some of the LCC pocket accessories if I ever get C1...those were cool IMHO. C1 has come quite a ways. When I can, I'll add it to our software arsenal.

I have been a user of Capture One for a couple of years but have strugled to get my head around the way to use this software as my chosen raw converter, I love the improved quality that Capture One gives me but always seem to end up scratching my head and going back to Lightroom to save time. I haven't been able to watch the full presentation due to time difference, (I am in the U.K), and other commitments but I have learnt so much in the time I have spent watching that I can finally see me waving goodbye to Lightroom in the very near future. The presenters are excellent teachers, they are funny, engaging and thanks guys you really have made a p[ositive difference to how I interact with Capture One software.
