Lesson 1. Organizing Your Media > Entering Metadata Manually
Entering Metadata Manually
In addition to all that automatically generated metadata, you can also manually add additional data about your clips. This information is sometimes visible in the Inspector, and sometimes visible as keywords in the Event Library and Event Browser.
Creating Clip-Based Metadata
Some metadata are stored on a clip-by-clip basis. These primarily include logging information such as general notes, the scene name/number, take number, camera reel, and so on. But you can also add custom data fields.
1. In the Event Browser, select Shot_01.
2. If the Inspector is not currently visible, press Command-4.
3. From the Metadata View pop-up, make sure Extended View is chosen.
4. In the Inspector, in the Notes field, type Walks right to left.
