    New to this forum but now cow,

    Is there a way to media manage after effects projects like you do in final cut so you only save the media you used on the timeline?

    TIA

    How do you media manage in After Effects CS5?

    Go to File, collect files, and then set your target-save-zone. This will place all your media assets in the same location.

    I find THIS was the closed thing to Final Cut Pro’s media manage in After Effects.

    This doesn’t direct you to the answer, you actually want to use the “Collect Files” function under the file menu.
