I can't seem to find where I can upload my csv files into fotolia. I'm uploading a lot of clips and hoping I just can't find it rather than fotolia not having csv as an option.

Thanks

Hi @Cider Apple, currently we don't have a place for you to upload your CSV file. The system will read any embedded metadata you have in your clips however.

Kind regards,

Mat Hayward

Hi Matt, thanks for the reply. Could you please guide me through the easiest process of uploading 5000 clips all without metadata embedded in them. I have csv files though

am I going to have to copy and paste all data 5000 times? OMG!!!

Take a look at ExifTool (http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/). It's a free tool that support writing all sorts of metadata to many file types.
I am certain you can automate that pretty easily.
