[vet-mm] School Adobe Use & Creative Cloud

[Naim Abdelahad]

I am not too sure about clouds when working with image manipulation and video editing software, whether it is Adobe or any other brand.

I am assuming that Image manipulation software or Video editing in an app will have similar size files maybe a little smaller, but not much.

This in turn will force you to buy more cloud storage space....mmmmmm. So we may have saved on the software, but lost on the storage.



My other issue with clouds when dealing with images relates to access.

Who else can access it. Can the clouds be hacked? who is then responsible for the images and their correct usage?



Kind Regards



Naim Abdelahad

Thank you everyone who participated in my quick straw poll.  For those who are interested, I’ve attached a chart with the breakup.  Of course, this isn’t a comprehensive study, and doesn’t reflect those schools with more complicated arrangements.

Meanwhile, Adobe has released a more affordable and flexible option to students/teachers (in my opinion).  I’ve just signed up for the Creative Cloud: $25 a month for students/teachers, with access to the entire Adobe collection.  It’s a subscription service, so you don’t own the software to take away after your subscription ends, but it does mean that you always have the most up-to-date software.  It can also be installed twice – once on a MAC and once on a PC.  There are cloud benefits too, but I’m mostly after the software and spreading the payments across the year instead of a lump sum.
