Why Organizing Your Media Matters
Effective video editing begins with a well-organized workspace. Before you open DaVinci Resolve, it’s important to set up your project files so they are easy to locate, clearly labeled, and stored in one place. A clean project folder helps prevent technical issues such as missing media, broken links, or disorganized timelines later in the editing process.
Organizing your files at the start supports:
A smoother editing workflow
Fewer errors when importing or locating media
Consistent naming that simplifies version control
