How I Store over 100TB of Video Footage - Video File Storage Tutorial

What to study

Scale & Specificity

  • If you shoot video, your drives probably pile up faster than you can sort them.
  • Nine drives and 100TB in the title show far more footage than yours, kept in order.
  • Ben's sheepish look, hands spread over the row, admits it got out of hand.
How the packaging works
Title

'How I' is backed by a real number, over 100TB, so it reads as tested experience, and 'Video File Storage Tutorial' at the end catches people searching that exact phrase.

Thumbnail

Each drive carries a year label, BJC 2014 through 2021 plus a BACKUP, which hints at the system, though the labels are too small to read at feed size.

Remix this

When your system handles more than your viewers will ever need, show the sheer amount lined up in front of you. A relaxed, slightly sheepish pose keeps it relatable rather than showing off.
