2019 - 08 - 26 - How I Keep My Completed Projects Archive Organized

One of the things that can ruin your day is having a project return from the dead. In this video, I use the example of a building having its name changed. A simple update, just swap out the slide, hire Jack for the easiest 3-second voice over, and republish. Right but without all of the source files, this simple update can leave you needing to recreate everything from scratch. So proper project archiving is critical. I store my archive on a large Network Attached Storage which is backed up using Carbonite. I have a folder for each year then a folder for each month and then a project folder with the name of the project and the date the project ended. And then inside of the project folder, I have subfolders for all of the original materials, any notes, export files, etc. Everything I would need to go back to work if the need arrives. How do you keep your archives organized?
