Specification

Source materials:

Upload Kdenlive video edit file to a public repo such as a wiki or gitlab. Example - https://github.com/OpenSourceEcology/Collaborative-Video-Protocol
Upload video source files to Youtube or other file sharing repositories.
- Youtube is convenient. The original mp4 upload was 720HD. The Youtube download, was also 720HD with no visible downgrade of quality. But file size reduced from 370MB to 45MB - 8x. Thus - editing should be done from the downloaded files. This was for a 4 minute clip - so essentially 10 MB per minute.
Upload graphics to a public repository
Upload sound to a public repository or youtube

Editing:

Download the edit file.
Download all source files - video, graphics, sound, other
Place them all in the same folder on your desktop - along with your Kdenlive edit file
Begin editing. Work only with downloaded files - not sources from your desktop - to assure that everyone is using identical assets
As soon as you finish your session, upload the cut to the public repo with version control.
To continue editing, download the edit file from the public repo.
