Lightroom 5 Essentials: 02 Managing Images with the Library Module

Lightroom 5 Essentials: 02 Managing Images with the Library Module

with Chris Orwig

 


In part two of Chris Orwig's Lightroom Essentials, you'll learn how to add important metadata to your images that will help you find and filter your library, process images and video, and export, email, and share photos—all from within the powerful Library module in Adobe Lightroom. First you'll learn how to flag, rate, and rank your photos and use the information to find images that match those criteria. Then tag them with locations and add keywords and identifying information that clearly distinguish the subject and your copyright. Chris also shows you how to make image adjustments with Quick Develop, and play, trim, and edit video. Lastly, find out how to export your photographs to a hard drive, email them to friends and clients, and upload them to sharing sites like Flickr and Facebook.
Topics include:
  • Adding flags, stars, and labels to images
  • Filtering your library by text, metadata, and file type
  • Stacking photos into groups
  • Creating a collection to group images
  • Tagging images with locations
  • Processing images in the Library module
  • Viewing and editing videos
  • Working with the DNG file format
  • Adding copyright metadata to photos
  • Adding keywords
  • Opening images in Photoshop
  • Exporting, emailing, and publishing photos

Chris Orwig is a celebrated photographer, author, and teacher who brings passion to everything he does. He is on the faculty at the Brooks Institute in Santa Barbara, CA. As a teacher, Chris subscribes to W. B. Yeats's idea that "education isn't about filling a pail, but igniting a fire." As a photographer, he agrees with Marc Riboud's observation that "taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second."
