A good folder system is essential for anyone working on a video project. It helps you stay organized, efficient and ensures that you can find what you need when you need it.

As someone who has spent 27 years working in video post-production, I can attest to the importance of a good folder system for video projects. Over the years, I have seen firsthand how having a well-organized folder structure can make all the difference when it comes to staying efficient and productive.

A good folder system can help you quickly find what you need, collaborate effectively with team members, keep track of different versions of your project, and ensure that your work is easily searchable. By creating separate folders for each aspect of your project and following a chronological naming convention, you can save yourself time and frustration and streamline the post-production process.

Through my years of experience, I have developed best practices for folder naming conventions and file structures that can help you maximize efficiency and reduce errors.
