dude you totally saved me with this! thanks so much for doing this video. I am editing from everywhere now after the pandemic and this helps me out so much
Hey brother great video, do you point Dropbox to your macs internal hard drive? I’ve found that syncing certain projects are too large to fit on my internal hard drive, and require me to sync Dropbox to an external drive which presents its own issues. Would love to hear how you manage that.
I point Dropbox to my internal hard drive (1TB). I do occasionally run into issues if I get a big folder of footage shared from someone, but I’ll download it in parts and move it to a working drive. I generally have 300gb or so free that’s flex space; I don’t permanently store any footage that isn’t stock assets in Dropbox.
Hey Drew thanks for this video it was really helpful but I still need some sorting my editing system. Do you have the actual Premier pro app saved on Dropbox or do you go into Premier pro and from there link your media with Dropbox? that's what I have been trying to do but still files keep downloading onto my laptop itself eating up all my storage. Let me know if you can help!
Thanks for the video! Curious what webdam you are using? Currently trying to find a good solution for all our B-roll footage/proxies we use for various projects. Would love it to be logged by client, previewed/scrubbed through remotely on the web and then know where that raw footage lives on our local server. All this without hindering our workflow, or adding a ton of extra steps. Woof - Pennies for your thoughts :)
We use WebDAM by Bynder - but I absolutely do not recommend it. Currently exploring alternatives like Frame.io or another solution which has stronger AI behind it to process our footage.
@@drewbdarby Oh, very interesting. We currently use Frame.io for client feedback along with final deliverables and love it! I'm just not sure how it would be utilized as a DAM though. I will be sure to look into it. I only have experience with CatDV which is a little over kill for us but looking at Kyno currently if that helps? Thanks!
Yeah we'd be switching to Frame for reviews, and then finding a new solution for managing our archive. Had someone reach out the other day with a really cool demo of an AI accelerated archive solution that seemed super promising. Hopefully they come to market soon.
exactly what I figured when they upgraded to 2T and all went 'working form home'! thx for explaining, will show it to my team!
you should show us the process for workflow.

Thanks for this. I've got so many external hard drives with different leads... crazy
Bro I’d love to see more about your file naming/ file hygiene workflow! You seem like you have a master system!
I’ll add that to the list! Kinda obsessive about my organization
Super helpful! Thanks for making this! 👍
You did not way HOW to upload to premier pro and that is what i need to know
This was so helpful! Thanks so much :)
So does this mean that I do not need to have my footage locally stored to use it premiere pro?
No, you'll still need to have your footage locally.

Thank you for this video!! So helpful 🙌🏻
OneDrive is very simillar. Though I don't know for how long I can bring back deleted files.
I would guess it’s got similar functions. If I was more in the Windows/Office365 sphere I’d probably have needed up using it.

The Premiere Pro app package is in my applications folder. I don’t have any project media (raw footage) in Dropbox.
