The Primavera Photo Collection

As I announced some time ago, I want to create a photo library with pictures from gigs, rehearsals, etc. You may even already have gathered all your pictures.

Because I expect quite a few pictures, you'll have to help me to organise these. This may take you a little bit of time, but it will save me hours and hours. So here goes:
  • Burn your pictures to a CD. Label the CD with your name, the date, and the titel "Primavera photos"
  • On the CD, you have to create a directory structure as follows:
    • Level 1: your name
    • Level 2: a subdirectory named [YYMMDD tttt], where YYMMDD is the date (in that format!) and 'tttt' is either 'gig', 'rehearsal', 'workshop', or 'machado'. Use 'gig' for a primavera gig, 'rehearsal' for one of our normal rehearsals, 'workshop' for one of my other workshops (for example the Active & Healthy ones) and 'machado' for a performance I did with Jason Machado (without the samba school)
    • Level 3: create 3 subdirectories: 'excellent', 'good', and 'other'.
      • In subdirectory 'excellent', please put your photos that are, well, excellent, which means they are definitely good enough to put prominently on our website and use on flyers.
      • In subdirectory 'good', put pictures that can still be put on our website, but are not good enough for flyers and other promotion material
      • In subdirectory 'other' you can put all other pictures you've got.
  • Note the actual photos only will go into the subdirectory in level 3!
  • I have included a list of gigs in the comments to this post for your reference.
So, a sample directory structure will look as follows:
  • Remko Wallach
    • 040923 gig
      • excellent
        • excellent pictures go here
      • good
        • good pictures go here
      • other
        • other pictures go here
    • 051021 gig
      • excellent
      • good
      • other
    • 070208 rehearsal
      • excellent
      • good
      • other
It would be great if I could get your CD on Thursday 22 February. Thanks!

Remko, How you feel about becoming a document controller? ;-)
