Camera Position 81 : Project Planning Roadmap – DAM!
Jeff Curto's Camera Position - Een podcast door Jeff Curto
In our final “Project Planning Roadmap” podcast, we talk about DAM – Digital Asset Management – trying to get a handle on what these software packages can do for you. Rating, sorting, grouping, keywording and adjusting your images is what applications like Apple Aperture and Adobe Lightroom are all about. If you’re using them, you know, but if not, it’s a really great way to get organized, stay organized and keep your project on track.
