Topic and Description
Topic: Metadata and organizational best practices for tagging your content to reuse and repurpose.
Description: Customers have files everywhere. With the pandemic people started to realize they didn’t know where their files were, how to get access to those files when outside of their facilities, and even once connected remotely, didn’t know how to get them into their editorial workflows. Metadata can be intimidating for someone who hasn’t ever had an asset management system, but many don't understand they already have created metadata associated with their files. Spreadsheets, Folder structures, file naming, are all great starting points when building a new asset management system.
