Google Images adds creator and credit metadata to photos

This week, Google revealed a new collaboration with IPTC and CEPIC that brings image rights metadata to Google Images. The new “Image credits” inclusion is found by tapping the triple-dot menu icon directly beneath an image located on Google Images. When selected, Google presents both image credit and image creator metadata.

The company notes that it has historically been difficult to locate creator and copyright information for online images. Google’s new image credits data helps address that problem, and in “coming weeks” it will also add metadata related to image copyrights.

The information’s inclusion depends on the availability of metadata, though, leading to another announcement: Google will work with IPTC and CEPIC to improve guidelines advising photographers, photo agencies, and more on how to include relevant metadata with their images.

PhotoShelter CEO Andrew Fingerman provided Google with a statement on the importance of this new feature, saying:

Employing IPTC metadata standards in Google Images results will help ensure proper attribution of credit and support photographers’ copyright, while also boosting the discoverability of content and creators. This is a win for the professional photo community.

NEW YORK, July 18, 2024 (Newswire.com)
–
Tiny Souls Media Inc., a start-up specializing in children’s media and educational resources for caregivers, launched its first episodes of an original preschool animated series entitled Zip and the Tiny Sprouts last month on YouTube. The series is written and directed by K Love You Bye’s Peter Johnston and Kyle Logan with Chris Bennett (Bluey) as animation director. Zip and the Tiny Sprouts aims to entertain young audiences while supporting their learning and social-emotional development. The series will feature 26 seven-minute episodes set in the whimsical Harmony Hollow, released every other weekend on YouTube and the YouTube Kids app. Additional content such as sing-alongs and craft videos are also featured on the channel to help families learn and grow together.

Each episode features meaningful stories and original music on themes like patience, perseverance and gratitude, and is grounded in established curriculum frameworks and developmental psychology research. Lacey Mason (Sesame Workshop, Dodo Kids), Head of Development and Production at Tiny Souls Media, shared, “Each episode of Zip and the Tiny Sprouts is thoughtfully crafted with humor and heart. We have an extremely talented art and animation team making the Sprouts and their world come to life in fantastic, endearing and relatable ways.”

“We are thrilled to launch this unique animated series alongside a robust offering of resources and activities that empower caregivers and educators of young children to learn about important themes that can create a solid foundation for their well-being,” said Shadi Toloui-Wallace, founder and Chief Creative Officer of Tiny Souls Media. 

The show has already become a YouTube sensation with the first five episodes garnering over 1.5 million views within the first month of its release. “The reception to it has been just wonderful. But there’s no time to rest. Our journey is just getting started and we’ve got lots of funny, heartfelt and thoughtful stories to share,” said Animation Director and writer Chris Bennett.

Unique to many of its competitors, Tiny Souls offers educational content for both caregivers and young children, all informed by developmental psychology research. Earlier this year, Tiny Souls Media launched the Caregiver Companion Series of parenting courses available on its website and app, featuring expert advice, purposeful activities and games, songs and more.
