Samenvatting:

One of the main concerns for digital photographers today is asset management: how to file, find, protect, and re-use their photos. The best solutions can be found in The DAM Book , our bestselling guide to managing digital images efficiently and effectively. Anyone who shoots, scans, or stores digital photographs is practicing digital asset management (DAM), but few people do it in a way that makes sense. In this second edition, photographer Peter Krogh - the leading expert on DAM - provides new tools and techniques to help professionals, amateurs, and students: understand the image file lifecycle - from shooting to editing, output, and permanent storage; learn new ways to use metadata and key words to track photo files; create a digital archive and name files clearly; determine a strategy for backing up and validating image data; learn a catalog workflow strategy, using Adobe Bridge, Camera Raw, Microsoft Expression Media, and Photoshop CS4 together; migrate images from one file format to another, from one storage medium to another, and from film to digital; and, learn how to copyright images. To identify and protect your images in the marketplace, having a solid asset management system is essential. The DAM Book offers the best approach.
