| So I'm taking a lot of photos lately and I'm taking them for a few reasons. Firstly, I'm very interested in the developments in image to video AI. So I began, because I had some free time recently, I began to just create, take a lot more kind of stock photographs than I usually do, photographs of my area, certain things. And now I've discovered a second use for that in having a very rich library of things to animate into video which opens up a lot of exciting creative possibilities. <br><br>And my wife and I had our first son a few months ago so that was what really kind of kicked me off on it and I have a better phone. So for many years I've wanted to, I really like Google Photos and I have the unlimited plan and I recognize that it's impossible to get the level of photo storage that they provide. No one else is going to offer that for free. And I'm happy with it except that I find it doesn't really scale very well. <br><br>It's not quite mature enough as a tool for like if I wanted to organize my own stock library and I wanted to begin tagging them with a bit of metadata. The other thing is that if you create a lot of different albums there's not really any interface for searching through all your albums if I want to add the same shots to different albums. So it's a very good platform, but on a few aspects, I feel like I could use something a little bit more! <br><br>And some platforms that I thought were very much oriented towards professional photographers. But I think maybe also there's a use for, I guess what you could call D-A-M, because if I could extend it to video as well, it would bring another dimension of use. I don't want to self-host, I'm looking for cloud platforms, and I also definitely want to be able to sort through and upload to whatever it is from my Android, as well as from my computer. What are your recommendations? |
