Hi Bobby,
Maybe I'm reading this wrong but if you shoot a single game, say week1, make a working PD folder, say, soccer, on the internal drive, open a PD project, edit and produce, say, to mpeg you end up with a week1.pds, and week1.mpg with a load of week1 raw assets. You can pack that project to your external drive or if you're careful just copy the lot across into, say week1 folder.
If you need to reedit etc you can (after emptying the soccer folder) copy the contents of week1 (external drive) into the now empty soccer folder and repeat the process as they are still in their source location, albeit having been on holiday on the external drive.
If you use the same process for week2 -20 you end up with 20 .pds files, 20 edited mpgs and 20 sets of organised raw assets all stored and organised on the external drive in 20 folders..
The final video can be made with the 20 weekly mpgs as, say finishedgames.pds, again copied into the working soccer folder and either produced to file or disc etc.
That way you get to see each game etc etc before finally putting it all together.
If you're really organised you could also make highlight edits for each week in a similar way, and assemble 20 lots of highlights at the end as well.
If I've read it wrong - sorry.
Cheers
Adrian
