Major Project Unit - Organising The Footage

   One of my personal weaknesses is organisation, so before I started editing 'Roadman' I decided to come up with a simple way for me to organise the clips when I get them. It is important for me to keep the footage organised as it will help me when it comes to editing when looking for clips to use, and also helps prevent footage being lost. 

   The way I have decided to do this is with a code for me to use to locate footage while I am editing. The code includes what scene it is and what take it is, and if it is something important, have a brief description of what the clip is. For example, scene 1 take 1 is saved as 'SC1T1'. I can type this in to the search bar in the editing software for me to locate this specific clip. I also have put the clips and audio from each scene into its own individual folder, this is also to help keep it all tidy and organised; below is a screenshot of how I have organised the footage.
