I've never had to organize much in the way of videos/photos, until now. I'm going on a trip for a month or two and want to organize the pictures and videos I will be taking. I'm interested in datestamps and tags more than anything. Does anyone have a workflow that works for them? Any apps that make this easier that I haven't heard of?

EDIT: I'm wondering about things like, downloading media from my camera and having something sort it all in a schema of my choosing. Maybe other things that I don't know enough to even wonder. Or, maybe there is no there there.

I'm so out of my comfort zone, I was just wondering if people knew of an obvious way of dealing with media. My idea is to be able to edit videos/pictures from to , or call up all videos/pictures with a tag that labels things like people, place, why, et. al. I don't think it'll take very long to get something working just using a quick script, I've done similar before. 99% of the time I find I like my solution better, but then there are things like Calibre. Sure I could, and have, hacked up something to manage my books, but it wouldn't be as good or as easy as just using Calibre.

    Okay then you don't want to organize them, you want an interface. Chuck all the pictures in a folder, and use something like darktable to review and edit them, you can search by tag, filter by metadata, all that fun stuff.
