    Thanks for this. You made this simple and not complex like a lot of the other videos I've seen on this topic. I'd like to see you make a video on how you organize all of your business, resource, and client files. I'd also like to know what your view is on storing files and folders locally vs the cloud

      I personally store everything on portable SSD's and back them up onto a large hard drive that lives at home. I do back up final edits to the cloud via Google Drive, but I do not store footage or RAWs via the cloud because it would simply take too much time and storage for the scale of projects that I am working on. Hope this helps! :)

    • @HardcastleCreatives
      @HardcastleCreatives  Год назад

      @@stephanhungnguyen1117 Not sure what aspect you would consider professional, but the main things I focus on when I am making a video are composition and color grading, I make sure the background and space around me are how I want them to look. I color grade mostly manually. This video gave me some trouble cause I found out I was working with a VERY contrasty monitor so my image ended up being color graded a little too contrasty, but I have been working on something to speed up the process and make it look better (like in my most recent videos) and it may be dropping soon for everyone 👀

    If possible make a video on how you organalize personal life in folders, example -> Paying tax, travels, insurances , bill payments, family pictures etc. Would love to see a video from you on that.

    • @HardcastleCreatives
      @HardcastleCreatives  Год назад +1

      Unfortunately, my personal life is not as organized lol. I will say that I tend to keep all photos on my phone and backed up to a cloud service (I use iCloud, but Google Photos is just as good). As for bills and taxes, I keep business purchases in a certain folder for the year and I always use paperless billing so I can just save my bills in a label on Gmail.

    Why does every folder, regardless if it’s following a sequence, have prefixed numbers? The months, arguably make sense, but why everywhere else?

    • @HardcastleCreatives
      @HardcastleCreatives  Год назад +2

      Great Question! This ensure that the folders stay in the order that I created instead of alphabetically. This way, January is fixed to first instead of half way down the list. Hope that makes sense and helps!

      Thanks for watching! Here is how I have those folders divided up. :)
      Resources are divided up by file type. So in that folder I store any LUTs, Titles, Overlays, Sound Effects, etc.
      The Business Folder is broken up into Branding, Invoices, Estimates, Contracts, and Taxes (receipts, gas, etc)
