My question is for those of you that fly commercially or serious hobbyists. It’s about video storage and what seems to work best for your workflow.
When I was an Avid editor many years ago I would offload tape (yeah I know lol) and store it on the server with the date first and then the location and possibly additional parameters. With everything being digital this seems much easier now! I was thinking of doing the same thing with an pair of 8TB external storage drives. One for storage and one copied nightly as backup.
For instance: 2.15.18.Islamorada.FL.Beach.Footage.mov
This will allow me to search and find Beach, FL, Islamorada, or even the date if I knew when it was...? I also have a separate folder for each of my drones...not sure if that’s really needed?
I’d like to know what you are doing.
Thanks!
Scott
