Overview
Most people are awash in digital photos—some taken, some
received—stuffed here and there in random folders and albums
across a hard drive. In The Digital Shoebox, Sarah Bay
Williams, creator of the image archiving system used by the Academy
Awards®, shares her foolproof method for effectively
organizing, finding, and sharing photos so you never lose track of
your most precious memories.
Unlike many books on digital photography that are driven by
software, The Digital Shoebox teaches readers an
easy-to-remember and easy-to-repeat system that doesn’t feel
like homework or require learning lots of complicated software
applications. Part 1 of the book guides readers through the seven
most important steps for organizing photos; Part 2 is packed with
tips on ways to enjoy and share those photos. Each chapter closes
with some slightly more advanced information, should readers want
to get "technical."
Based on the author’s experience as photography coordinator
for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and as someone
who simply loves taking photos, The Digital Shoebox is the
first concise and user-centered guide solely dedicated to
organizing a personal digital photography collection.
Takes a fun and easy-to-implement approach to asset management, featuring a friendly writing style and charming illustrations
Teaches the seven key steps needed to help users keep photos organized, available, and safe
Includes a "Beyond the Box" section at the end of each chapter for more advanced readers who want to move beyond the basics
