The below screenshot shows a specific environment being used. When you are going through this tutorial, it is very likely that your environment has a different name. When you signed up for this tutorial, you were provided with the environment details to use, please follow those instructions.

Your workspace is now created. Next, you should create a new project. Click + New Project.

NOTE

As you can see in the screenshot, the folder Sound Effects isn’t selected at this moment. This because the manual upload doesn’t support uploading folders. In a couple of minutes you’ll install the Frame.io Transfer app, which you will use to upload that folder and its files.
