The Project panel offers a comprehensive set of tools for managing project files and media, streamlining the process of importing, organizing, and using various media types in your compositions. You can open the Project panel by clicking Project on the right-hand side.
How the media library is organized
Understanding how project files are organized in Descript will help you navigate and manage project media effectively:
- The Composition section shows all the compositions in your project.
- The Files section contains all project files you import into your project and any recordings you've made.
Adding and interacting with your project files
- You can add media files from your computer, use a link from Zoom or GIPHY, create folders to organize project files, and even create sequences.
- Project file actions allow you to perform various tasks, such as renaming, transcribing, applying effects, and deleting files based on the project file type.
- The Files section search feature helps you find specific files by name. You can also access filtering and sorting options to further refine your search.
Replacing and updating files
- You can replace existing project files with new versions containing the same underlying content. This is especially useful when encountering issues with the current project file or needing to swap out a scratch track with a final version.
-
You can replace a project file's transcript in Descript, making it an excellent option for situations where you start with an automatic transcription and later decide to replace it with a pre-written transcript.
