This whitewater shoot of the Numbers Rapids on the Arkansas River near Buena Vista, Colorado is apparently my first editorial shoot since the big iStock / Getty unification project. I’m sure everyone else has already figured out how to do it, but I was really tearing my hair out for a while there!
DeepMeta no longer has a check box for editorial so it was a bit difficult to figure out how to do it. Of course it would have been helpful to watch the tutorial for the new interface first, lol… but that’s not how I roll :) Well anyway I finally did watch it and discovered that the editorial submission process has been included at the batch level with the new batch concept implemented by Getty Images.
So for those who operate like I do, the answer lies in the creating of the batch. There is a tab on the batch creation window for an editorial batch. Mine haven’t been accepted yet, but the documentation I found indicates that the old rigid caption requirement has been eliminated and that now you just enter the data into the description field. Supposedly the rigid requirements for a format have been relaxed. We will soon find out!
