People using the Student Multimedia Design Center will soon be starting new video projects and many will shoot enough video that specific clips become hard to manage.

PC Magazine) offers good file naming advice for keeping clips in chronological order with names that also help one locate content. It's worth reading before starting new projects.
The article also addresses digitization of older video and storage options. Videographers should read the article to ensure that they're covered on these three points:
- centralizing video files (that is, getting them off one's smartphone and video camera),
- naming files intelligently and tagging them so one knows what they contain, and
- backing up and archiving final edited files.
