Production: File Organization

 These are the methods to organize files, folders, and labels in my group to have a better and easier production process in this project. 

Advantages of our system of organisation

• All the footage available in one place
• Accessible to all members of the team

Disadvantages of our system of organisation

• No labels to determine which footage is good or bad
• No thumbnails
• Everything very disorganised

Advantages of using Google Drive

• All our group members were able to access all the video files without having to uploading all the videos to a DVD drive and downloading it from the DVD drive
• Automatically updates when someone deletes, uploads, or renames a file
• Allows for any file type to be uploaded
• Compatible between mobile phones and computers

Disadvantages of using Google Drive

• Must have internet to access the files
• No offline back up
• Can only take up to 15gb of storage compared to DVD drives

This type of file organisation benefits us as we are typically organised when we are disorganised. This means that the style of disorganisation best suits us. Having all the resources compiled in one place is very beneficial to us as it is accessible to us at all times when we have internet. 

Self-Reflection:

I personally found this method of file organization useless for myself as I was not part of the editor who uses and benefits from this file organization to make it easier to compile files up, so therefore as we only have one editor, I think that this file organization ultimately benefits for the one who edited the music video and not the others who aren't a part of the editing. Speaking based from experience, I do not have the authority nor power to have access with the file organization. So in conclusion, this section was utter useless for me.
