  • Which import options to use for your projects
  • How to use favorites and keywords to track all your clips after import
  • When files should be stored in a library or referenced separately
  • How to consolidate libraries
  • How to create libraries from existing events and projects
  • How to change library preference settings
  • How to change where media and render files are stored

And much more.
