Introduction: Managing Media and Databases (06:09)

DaVinci Resolve utilizes a database to store all projects, bins, and timelines. Ollie Kenchington demonstrates how to copy media from one drive to another incorporating handles. Consolidating media can be used to remove video and audio clips that are no longer needed; archiving a project collects all files and places them in a destination folder.
