Video archiving: what a future-proof package contains
Real video archiving protects more than the final export. A re-editable package holds the project file, the media it uses, graphics, fonts, music licences and a note about the software version. Without them, a project may not reopen cleanly in a few years. Tell us which applications you use, since Premiere, Resolve and Avid structure projects differently, and say whether you want the consolidated media trimmed or complete.
Masters should be made at the highest quality you need to keep. ProRes 4444 XQ and DNxHR are large, so plan storage. Verification is important because drives fail silently, and a checksum confirms that a copy matches the original. Keep at least one copy off-site. Send the project, the list of what counts as final and a short description of each, so the catalogue we prepare makes it easy to find things later.
