ABSTRACT
There are many quality-of-life matters you can address as you set up your editing realm, some that will make editing easier and others that will protect you from disaster. Developing a sensible fi le-naming system will make for happier editing-and your colleagues will know which of your sessions to use when you’re not available. A smart backup system will avert the worst of disasters and help you to sleep at night. And intelligently preparing your videotapes will reduce errors and save time.
