[ipad] syncing photos from an ipad album?

[Bev]

We are using a class-set of ipads for a school video project. After each lesson, I'm backing up the photos/videos shot to my mac so that if anyone else uses the ipad in between lessons the work isn't lost.

 

The movies are in Movie Maker, and the children can give their movie a name, "Class 2, Group 1" and send them to iTunes, and then I can pick them up in iTunes and back them up.

 

However, raw video that is sitting in the camera roll is harder to identify. I did think of getting them to move all their videos into an Album on the iPad and naming the album, but it seems as soon as you move a photo or video into an album, then you can no longer see it from the mac. I've tried iPhoto, image capture and iTunes but I can't see a way to save an Album.

 

Any ideas?
