Final DAM Assignment Details

Hi Everyone, Your second (and final) DAM assignment is as follows:

Continuing with the same 50 images from the first assignment and at least 150 more, (at least 200 DNG files total - you are welcome to use more, if you so choose), deliver two Expression Media catalog files:

1) One catalog file of your "Original Files" (should be named “Archived Originals” or something similar) of all 200 DNG images (or more) catalogued with the following criteria:

• Your highest-rated images in a Catalog Set called “Portfolio”
• Various images in at least 2 other Catalog Sets of your choosing (ex: Jobs, Personal Work) - more is better
• All images must have ratings, location, copyright, rights usage terms, keywords (including rating & label “backup” keywords), captions, your contact information, EXIF, etc
• Some images with labels applied (Expression Media Labels, not Bridge Labels!)
• While I do not need you to submit the actual DNG files, All 200 images should be catalogued from the corresponding “Bucket” (ex. “RAW_001”, "RAW_002", etc) and NOT CATALOGUED FROM YOUR WORKING FILES AREA. I will be able to see this in your catalog file.

2) One catalog file of your "Derivative Files"(should be named “Archived Derivatives” or something similar) with the following criteria:

• at least 20 derivative files created from the above 200 DNG files
• derivative files must be named correctly according to the type of derivative they are (see notes from first class - available on my FTP)
• all derivative files must carry over ALL metadata as shown in the DNG catalog, including Catalog Sets (hint: "Sync Annotations" before making derivatives)
• While I do not need you to submit the actual Derivative files, All derivative images should be in the corresponding “Bucket” (ie. “DRV_001”) when catalogued. I will be able to see this in your catalog file.

Catalog Files should be burned to DVD, labeled with your name and “DAM Assignment #2” and delivered to the DAM Drop Box in the filing cabinet in the Resource room NO LATER THAN 4:30 PM Friday February 12th.

Only deliver your two Expression Media Catalog files on one DVD. I DO NOT NEED YOUR DNG OR DERIVATIVE FILES.


Cheers, Josh
