And re: organization, I just label each clip with a string of keywords usually including the following things:
Character What the character is doing (actions, gestures, poses) Directionality (up, down, left to right, towards/away from camera) Shot type (closeup, wide shot) Shot angle Setting (if visible) Day vs. night Interior vs. exterior Light coloration (for very stylized sources) Any geometric shapes, objects, etc. that stick out in the shot
And then I can search for those keywords later to find a particular shot or type of shot.
