I'm talking about the best way to track all the little elements = that go into big After Effects, Fnal Cut, Photoshop projects.=20 Essentially I need a graphical database for messy artists. So assuming I have a nice big server, what is the best way to build a = library of Motion Graphics elements, including vectors, still images, = video, scripts, etc. Preferably Intuitive and easy to learn and use. this is for a small but = growing design and production company. A server-client model would be ideal, IOS and OSx friendly too. Open to anything, open source or commercial. So What do you use? Any and all thoughts on the issue are welcome. Thank you!
