How Do You Save and Organize Video References for Animation Projects?

Hi everyone!

When working on animation projects, collecting useful visual references can make the creative process much easier. I often find interesting short videos, movements, transitions, and visual effects that give me ideas for future creative projects.

I also explore online media tools such as SanpTikk.io for saving TikTok videos to watch later. Having video references available offline can be useful when studying movements, scene transitions,character expressions, or different animation styles.

For those working with Adobe Animate, I am curious about how you collect and organize your creative references before starting a project.

Do you save reference videos in separate folders, use mood boards, or organize everything through dedicated creative apps?

What tools do you find most useful for keeping visual inspiration organized and accessible?

I would love to hear about your creative workflows and recommendations!
