  1. After images have been shot and information has been collected for captions, images are transferred to the photographer\u2019s laptop or desktop in the corresponding month\u2019s folder.<\/li>\n
  2. The collection is pulled into PhotoMechanic and renamed using the SLUG 24-1324-CSVIP-001, 24-1324-CSVIP-002, 24-1324-CSVIP-003, for example.<\/li>\n
  3. Images are then edited from this collection, and images for final edit are tagged using the photographer\u2019s preferences.<\/li>\n
  4. Tagged images are then captioned using a pre-set IPTC, changing the caption and location.<\/li>\n
  5. Edited-down collection is brought into LightRoom and edited from there, then exported at 300dpi into a new folder within the initial folder. This new folder should be labeled \u201c-jpg\u201d<\/li>\n
  6. The entire folder is copied into MC \u2013 Photo \u2013 Photo_Production – _01_Photo_Drop<\/li>\n
  7. JPEGed images are moved into Cumulus\/DAM system, then batch edited to ensure they are starred in some manner, and labeled for \u201cEditorial\u201d use.<\/li>\n
  8. Photographer then returns to the Editorial Scheduled Photo Request in Trello, finds the corresponding assignment, and leaves a comment with the number of the assignment and tagging \u201c@card\u201d to alert the production team that the images are ready for use in Cumulus.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
