There you can create new folders by clicking ‘New Folder’ and naming the folders.</p><img alt="some-file-a15ada5d-acde-4dfc-99a8-2f23a7ab58d3" src="https://d2xo500swnpgl1.cloudfront.net/uploads/heygen/some-file-a15ada5d-acde-4dfc-99a8-2f23a7ab58d3-1734125623422.gif"><p><br></p><p>Then, you can hover over a video and three dots will appear in the upper right corner. Hover over the dots and then click ‘Move to’ and select the folder you’d like to move a video to.</p><p>Click ‘Confirm’ and you’re set!</p><h3><br></h3><h3>Naming your videos</h3><p>As you move your projects into folders, it’s important to make sure that your videos are all carefully named.</p><p>As you create more and more videos, you’ll most likely have several stages of videos in process. So, it’s a good idea to make sure that you carefully label the stage of each video.</p><img alt="some-file-21139b94-d466-4421-a159-9df8f30b9f29" src="https://d2xo500swnpgl1.cloudfront.net/uploads/heygen/some-file-21139b94-d466-4421-a159-9df8f30b9f29-1734125925816.gif"><p>Also, if you’re translating videos into several languages, it’s important to carefully label each translation, so there aren’t any costly mix-ups that occur.</p><p>To name a video, all you have to do is hover over the three dots on a video and click ‘Rename.’&nbsp;</p><p>You’ll notice the name beneath the video will become highlighted. You can then type a new name for the video.</p><img src="https://d2xo500swnpgl1.cloudfront.net/uploads/heygen/some-file-971ffd7c-ad5e-4e1e-be0e-6cafe96b690e-1734126029642.gif"><p>For example, a solid naming convention could be the name of the video, a dash, the version of the video, and in parentheses the language of the video, such as “Intro to HeyGen - v2 (English).</p><p><br></p><h3>Using Brand Kits</h3><p>Another great way to stay organized in HeyGen is to use a Brand Kit.</p><p>Click on ‘Brand Hub’ then ‘New Brand Kit’ to add a space for your assets, and then you’ll be able to organize colors, fonts, videos,&nbsp;and more associated with your specific brand.</p><img src="https://d2xo500swnpgl1.cloudfront.net/uploads/heygen/some-file-2abd8eaa-3b14-450b-ae22-89ddfebccda3-1734126175039.gif"><p>You can also add logos and video assets to your brand kit for easy access and consistency.</p><p>If you work with multiple brands, you can create multiple brand kits. </p><p><br></p><h3>Recap</h3><p>In this tutorial, you learned:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why master organization in HeyGen?</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Creating folders and adding videos to them</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Naming your videos</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Using brand kits</li></ol><p>In the end, there’s no right or wrong way to organize your files. However, the more methodical you are, the better.</p><p>We’re looking forward to seeing what you’ll create with HeyGen!</p><p>If you’re posting your videos on social media, make sure to tag any videos you create with @HeyGen_Official so we can celebrate them with you.</p>
