Action steps: Getting started
- [Narrator] It's time to get started putting together your Lightroom ecosystem. Your homework for this chapter is to purchase an Adobe Creative Cloud plan if you don't already have one. Next, make a choice regarding the Lightroom desktop applications. Are you going to use Lightroom CC or Lightroom Classic? If you aren't ready to make a decision about that yet, I recommend starting with Lightroom CC. Just import a handful of images for now so that you can get a feel for how it works. Download and install the desktop applications. If you're new to the Creative Cloud, start by installing the Creative Cloud desktop app followed by the Lightroom application that you chose. Next, install the Lightroom CC app on all of your mobile devices. Sign in to the Lightroom CC app and import some photos with each device. I recommend doing all of these things before moving on to get the most out of your course.
