What is metadata (and why does it matter)?

What is metadata, exactly? We’ve got you covered with a simple, straightforward metadata definition.

Metadata is all of the information that goes with your digital files — like tags, keywords, locations, authors, dates, and copyright information. Image metadata can also include what’s depicted in the image, color hex codes, or any other relevant information your team might collect and store.

So... dumb question. Does that mean that this video is data or metadata about metadata? If so, does that mean that this video is Metadataception?

Hello dude. I would like to dub your video in Italian and post it on my business FB page. Can I do that? Obviously, I will link to your original video.
