Sorting Your Media with Bins

 

When you’re creating your masterpiece, your project is likely to get a little unwieldy—you can’t express creative genius with a handful of media files, after all.

The detailed view of the Project Media window helps you sort your media files using their attributes, but for more control, you can create bins. Bins are folders within projects that you can use to organize your media files.

Media bins are virtual folders that are saved with your project. They do not affect the way media is saved on your computer.
