I have created about 700 Virtual copies of my very best images. These are isolated in a static collection and have a common internal (non exportable) keyword. I would like to promote these to be the Master copy and move these master files (along with associated VCs) into a new folder structure separate from my existing date named folder structure. I can't figure put a way to generate the proper date named folder structure and a quick way to move these master files into my new special folder structure.
My goal is to downgrade my existing folder structure and the less important images in it to a reject status and with scrutiny delete the 20,000 minus 700 other images and refine the 7000 sync'd images that are currently in the Adobe cloud.
I have thought about exporting these Virtual copies and then importing the derivatives into the new Date named folder structure and then discarding the derivatives. This would give me the folder structure to be populated with the master image file but no quick automated way to move the promoted image original files. Any clever folks out there that wants a challenge?
