The practical implementation of these concepts culminates in the task of adding metadata to video files. This process involves embedding descriptive and technical information directly into the video file’s header (using fields like EXIF, XMP, or ID3 tags) or associating it in an external database. While manual entry is time-consuming and inconsistent, modern workflows leverage automation. Tools and DAM systems can automatically extract technical metadata upon upload. More importantly, by integrating with automatic audio transcription services, they can generate a transcript and then use natural language processing to suggest relevant keywords, named entities (people, places), and topics for descriptive metadata fields. This semi-automated pipeline ensures consistency, saves immense manual labor, and builds a rich, searchable layer of information around the video. Effective metadata addition turns a folder of video files into a powerful, queryable library.
