i've been shooting video jobs where i'm just a camera op and someone else is doing the edit- i'd kinda rather not let them see the entire clips warts and all, mostly so they dont see my mistakes but also so they dont have to sit through 10 minute gimbal sections to get a 30 second clip
so, is there an easy way to pre-prepare my clips for working with an editor? ideally, I could trim and trash the clips so that i'm handing over a fairly succinct selection of usable clips, but I can see that taking a long time to render and also quality loss? So I was also thinking of making a time line and trimming clips in there, but then i'm handing over gigs of data that I dont need to, which is something that would be useful to minimize in my own work too as my video archive is pushing a few terabytes now and with my photography i'd only end up keeping copies of the final edited images and alternative angles etc that might have some future use, i'd delete all the stuff I didnt intent to use, so just feels weird that I have hours and gigabytes of video cluttering up my hard drives
