Prepare DAM workflow structure for the essay with practical steps you will follow from image capture, download, backup, renaming, rating, editing, metadata and output

The Digital Asset Management strategy for this overall assignment will be in line with my normal 3 tiered DAM management for storage of files, and will incorporate , 2-3 Cloud storage sites ( 2 iCloud addresses and Dropbox) and a seagate external drive, mac hard drive for local file processing as well as SD card archives.
