Get Advice On Location Solutions
Location shoots can have you travelling to remote locations and experiencing some less than ideal conditions! It’s important to have a backup process that can be trusted to keep your precious data safe, whilst being portable enough to fit in a backpack while on the road. Read up on Mentor advice for the do’s and don'ts to navigating location shoots, and speak with a SanDisk Professional product expert that can give you a workflow recommendation tailored to suit your backup requirements.
Get Advice On Studio Solutions
Unlike location or outdoor shoots where you're backing up on the move to portable drives, studio shoots give you the luxury to optimise your backup process and safely store your content in desktop drives as you go. Deep dive into our Mentor tips and tricks to up the quality and workflow of your shoots, and get in touch with a SanDisk Professional product expert to help you put together your dream studio kit.
