DESCRIPTION

Media management is defined as: “the process of organizing, importing and keywording media prior to and during editing.” Sounds simple, but we get more questions about media management in Final Cut Pro X than any other subject. So, this week, our goal is to answer all your questions.

Join host, Larry Jordan, as he looks at:

• Where to store media on your system
• How to organize media
• How to move libraries, media and projects
• Which import options to use for your projects
• How to use favorites and keywords to track all your clips after import
• When files should be stored in a library or referenced separately
• How to consolidate libraries
• How to create libraries from existing events and projects
• How to change library preference settings
• How to change where media and render files are stored

And much more.
