Adobe Bridge

Tharhawk

I haven't used Adobe Bridge much, but need to add meta data now. As far as I can tell, I need to add info per photo. I was wondering if there is a way with adobe bridge (I have cs2 now but just purchased the upgrade to cs4 which is on the way, if that makes a difference), to do all the photos, or most of the photos in a selection at once. Adding my name and address per photo isn't very efficient. I'm sure there must be a way, but I'm not seeing it. :dunno

Any other advice with adding meta data is appreciated as I'm a newb to doing it.

Also, while I'm asking, I need to get a model release for a few photos. Any good one I should use over another? Any advice there?

Thanks all. :thumb I know this is asking a lot, but any help is appreciated...as always.

Just select mutltiple thumbnails and then enter the metadata. You can do hundreds at once if you like. Ctl/Cmd A will select all, and Ctl/Cmd click will let you add them one by one. Selected thumbs are highlighted.

Sure, if you have multiple selected, when you enter info into the Metadata or Keywords panel it's applied to all selected. Though to work faster, you should create metadata templates, so that you can fill out multiple fields at once. Combine those and you can fill out multiple fields for multiple images with one click.
