This can be a hassle for a lot of reasons. For one, it might restrict the amount of hard drive space you can have at any given time on your computer. A solution to this would be an external hard drive, though this is a temporary solution, due to the fact you’re bound to obtain more video files in the future. Dropbox gives you a convenient place to store your videos in the cloud, freeing up space and organizing files.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192616\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-3.jpg\" alt=\"Two computer monitors editing a video.\" class=\"wp-image-40560\" srcset=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192616\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-3.jpg 800w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192616\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-3-450x300.jpg 450w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192616\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-3-768x512.jpg 768w\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dropbox minimizes the negatives of large video files.\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another downfall of video files is they are hard to share. It’s not so much an incompatibility issue (most video files are pretty accessible) as it is a size issue. In fact, it might even be seen as unprofessional to share a large video file with a client because of the inconvenience it may cause. This inconvenience could be in the form of too large a file or the annoyance of having to setup an account to receive it. Luckily with Dropbox, you’re able to share large video files with a link. Furthermore, the recipient can download it without a Dropbox account. These are both pretty apparent features Dropbox provides for sharing videos. Next, let’s dive into the common problem of size and how Dropbox manages it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"toc-3--video-length-and-security-considerations\">Video length and security considerations\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clearly, some videos are going to be too lengthy for a lot of users to download. This is becoming more apparent as resolution increases (it causes longer, bigger video files). What kind of solutions does Dropbox have in place for this? One interesting tool lets users watch their stored video files online (streaming) without having to download it. Even better, anyone they share the Dropbox link with can do the same. This is quite the convenience and ensures that users with weak internet access have sufficient capability to use Dropbox.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"792\" height=\"814\" src=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192615\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-4.jpg\" alt=\"A padlock chaining a gate.\" class=\"wp-image-40562\" srcset=\"\u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192615\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-4.jpg 792w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192615\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-4-438x450.jpg 438w, \u002Fcdn\u002Fen\u002F2020\u002F02\u002F19192615\u002Fshare-videos-on-dropbox-4-768x789.jpg 768w\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dropbox allows for extensive security.\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another thing to keep in mind is security. Uploading video files to the cloud can be risky. Fortunately, Dropbox has a lot of restrictions in place to ensure their safety. For one, it prohibits users from editing your videos unless given previous authorization. It also allows users to set passwords for access to their files.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you’re working with a lot of video files, especially longer ones with high resolution, Dropbox should be seriously considered.
