Metadata
Structural
Structural metadata is video clip-based and used primarily for
storage of objects in the production library and for presentation.
This metadata assists users during production and post
production steps and can be added or changed according to
where the content is in the workflow.
Structural metadata can include:
• Camera.
• Clip number.
• Name of videographer.
• Project ID.
• Storyboard frame number.
• Sequence start/stop (timecode-based)
• Frame location (timecode-based)
Structural metadata is added during recording and subsequent
editing. Often this metadata is timecode-based, which defines or
describes specific frames within a clip.
Templates
Metadata is entered using a template that is an xml document, and
example is the Apple XML Interchange Format. ProxSys Media
Servers are based on this format and many NLE applications
support it. Some NLEs use templates with other xml document
formats.
Metadata entered through the template is stored in a database on
the FS-5.
Default Template
Final Cut Pro (FCP) is the FS-5 default template. It can be used
as-is or modified to create custom templates. For more
information, see
Custom Template
The FS-5 provides the capability for the User to create custom
templates by modifying the FCP template or entering unique
fields into an empty template.
