- To upload footage, either:
- Drag & drop individual video files or folders into the uploading field.
- Click the "Select Folder" text to select a folder of footage to upload.

- After clicking the "Upload" button, you can see the status of your upload displayed at the bottom of the upload field updating in real time, which includes:
- The percentage of files/folders that have uploaded.
- The number of files/folders that have uploaded.
- The file size that has uploaded.
