![]() ![]() Like, if I wanted to add something under, let's say if we wanted to add a client list. If you want to add to a keyword library, at any point, that's very simple. It's so much faster doing it that way, you don't have to try and think of keywords so much, you can just use the ability to pull from that keyword library, it works so much better. So, if I put that, then it adds those keywords straight away. So, again, if I want to put in "Love", for example, then it's already said, give me a suggestion concept. So, it means I never have to think about spelling, I don't have to think about capitalizing or not capitalizing, 'cause it's always pulling from that keyword library, as such. Or if I type in "Landscape", then it gives me some suggestions directly from that catalog. If I type in "Wedding", then it already gives me some suggestions, like so. So, somebody's already done the hard work, but what really makes this great, is that when we start to want to add keywords to Capture One, let's do a bunch here. ![]() Under "Photography" we've got different kinds of types, like "Orientation" and so on. ![]() "Who", so you can make your own client list, and you own people list, for example. And that gives you more powerful search capabilities, as well. So, this gives you a really good idea of how hierarchical keywords work. And this is a big list of predefined keywords, so somebody, some really nice guy on the internet, has done all the hard work for you, thought about keywords in all kinds of situations, and put it into a text file that we can simply say, "Open in Capture One", give it a name, "Foundation List" and this gives us a preset of keywords like so, and already designated into various different parent categories so we've got, let's say, "What", for example, we've got various animals, again categorized into various different subcategories. So, if you hunt around for that, you'll be able to find it. It's called "The Lightroom Keyword Project" so a freely available list. The one that we're gonna show you today, let's see, from "Keyword Text File", let's grab it, Oh, it's over here, "Keyword List", like so. So I did a bit of Googling and searching around and found a bunch of various different keyword catalogs. If you find Lightroom compatible keywords libraries that's no problem at all, as well. If you search around, you can probably find them for free. And a keyword text file is something that you can sometimes buy online. The way to fast-track, if you like, your keyword handling is to pull it from a keyword text file. Or, you can grab the keywords from any other Capture One catalog and session. If you're a Media Pro user, which is another application from Phase One, you can copy a Media Pro vocabulary file. I can get a key word library from a text file, which I'll show you in a second. So, we can create a brand new empty keyword library, and I can populate that myself by typing in hundreds and hundreds of keywords. I'll zoom in so you can read them better. ![]() So, we have catalog keywords here, which is every single key word that is currently in this Capture One catalog. So, rather than kind of spelling keywords incorrectly, or capitalizing them sometimes, not capitalizing them sometimes, if you have a keyword library that you are constantly pulling from, it's so much better. But, to make your keywording more successful, it's really good if you create a standard set that you pull from. And you can see, there's the hierarchical one I made: "Wedding", "Ceremony", "Outdoor", like so. Capture One will show you, let's make this tool bigger, there we go, Capture One will show you all the keywords that are currently present in this catalog that I'm working with. So, first of all, let's hide metadata, let's just remove that. The way the Keyword Library works is that it has the ability to create different standardized sets or dictionaries, if you like, is a good term to describe it, different sets, catalogs, dictionaries of keywords. ![]()
