Project Naming & Settings

While we know some of our crew members may shoot in 4k or higher, please keep in mind we’ll be mastering each project with the following settings:


  • File Name: OrganizationName_ProjectTitle (ex: RTEMS_2018Gala)

  • Resolution: 1920 x 1080

  • Frame Rate: 23.976

  • Format: ProRes 444

Project Bin/Folder Structure

Before we pass off a drive for editing, we create our folder structure on the drive. From there, the project should be set up in a way that is easy to navigate, should the editor have to pass the project onto someone else. The project structure should look something like this:


  • 00_CUTS
    1. Current Cuts
    2. Old Cuts


  • 01_MEDIA

  • 02_AUDIO

  • 03_GFX

  • 04_SFX

  • 05_MUSIC

  • 06_OUTPUTS

  • 07_DOCS

  • ***GROUPS

*Each main bullet point is a folder, the lettered sub sections are bins.
