Exporting my video to the editing suite

Today was the first time I used an editing suite in college as I had my first 1 hour of footage to place on the system. The process took a while as I had to create my own folder on the  suite and then I had to individually  rename each clip that I had imported to make it organised and easier to edit. I then deleted clips I felt were to short to cut and edit such as clips under 3-4 seconds although this wasn't a problem as I had many shots of the same thing to avoid having to reshoot.
