Introduction to FinalCut
**File Storage for FinalCut Projects**
FinalCut will create one project file for your video project and many other associated files during the course of your work. Whenever you work on your project, you will need ALL of these files.
Create a directory on the desktop of the local harddrive called XXvideo (XX are your initials).
Open FinalCut
- Choose File/New Project
- Choose File/Save Project As...
- name your project XXproject and save it to the XXvideo folder.
Choose Edit/Preferences (Check this setting every session, in case another user has changed it.)
- Click on the "Scratch Disks" tab
Click on the "Set..." button and select XXvideo folder for Video Capture, Video Render and Audio Render.
Similarly set the folder for the Waveform Cache, the Thumbnail Cache and the Autosave Vault.
