File Management for Visual Artists

So, a client comes to you and requests an image from a shoot that happened five years ago. How do you find that one image in the sea of thousands and thousands of amazing shots that you’ve been collecting over the years? With every image you shoot, file organization and management becomes more and more important. Proper asset management saves you time, prevents images from being lost or destroyed and - best of all - leads to more sales! Quickly and easily being able to pull all the images that exactly fit the criteria you’re searching for is priceless. Have more time to do what you love, creating artwork! We will discuss how to set up an organized system for your files, tagging and backing up images, working in Adobe products and much much more!
