Keeping your clips

Postby lister007 » Mon Feb 26, 2007 5:20 pm

Does anyone keep all the clips they made during the project? Ideally I would but from my last vid I have 15 gigs. Should I keep then for another time? Or a reedit? Is the uncompressed version good enough for a re edit and I don't need the clips? What do you think?

If you export a lossless copy of your video it should only be maybe about 1gb, and with that you should be able to do things like add or remove titles and things at the beginning or end. If you want to go back later and actually do more editing, I guess you would need all the clips.

I usually don't mess with my videos anymore after I finish them.

I keep clips, but to re-use in other videos. I also over-clip, so, for example the video i'm working on right now has a good 10x the number of clips i ever used, thought that was intentional as i plan to make 3 videos to the same series. As for keeping them to fix edits on a completed video... i'd be against it. Once you're done, you should be done.

I save mine on DVDs. They are cheap nowadays.
