Introducing the Media panel

         what is media panel in hitfilm the media panel in hitfilm is place where all your media mean audio videos 3d model animation data composite shot are presents in media panel.from media panel in hitfilm  you can easily access any media you want if you delete videos from media panel in hitfilm it will still remain in  HDD Drive.    
All of your re-usable project assets are stored in the Media panel for easy access.

When you first start a project your Media panel in hitfilm  will be empty. As you bring files into the project or

create them inside HitFilm they will be listed. 

Media assets can include:

Video, image and audio files. If you're editing a film you'll probably have lots of these. Working

with these files inside HitFilm never makes direct alterations to the files on disk.

3D models are imported from disk like a video but are then stored inside the project file. Note that

although the 3D model geometry data is included in the project file, associated textures are not. If

you transfer or archive a project make sure you include any required textures. Alembic animation

files are not stored inside the project and are treated like other media files.

Planes are special colored rectangles which can be created inside HitFilm. These are very useful

and can be heavily customized with the addition of effects and mask shapes.

Composite shots are special layer-based timelines designed specifically for creating visual

effects, titles and animations.

All items in the Media panel can be dragged onto any timeline in the project. Items can be used

multiple times in the same project and even on the same timeline.

When you add an item from the Media panel to a timeline it creates a new clip or layer (depending

on the type of timeline). You can then heavily customize that specific instance of the clip or layer,

without affecting the main item in the Media panel.

Syncing video and audio

If your video and audio are recorded in separate files, you can sync them in the HitFilm media panel.

Select the video file in the media panel, then hold CTRL (CMD on Mac) and select the associated

audio file. Right-click on either of the files, and select "Merge Audio/Video." HitFilm will compare the

audio in both files, synchronize them, then replace the original audio in the video with the audio file

you selected. A new synchronized file will be created, and can then be edited on the timeline.
