Revealing Effect Media Files
You can reveal the media files associated with effect clips (titles and matte keys), rendered effect clips (precompute clips), and motion effects so that they are visible in their folders on the desktop. You can then verify information about the media files, delete them directly from the folder, or perform other standard file management operations.
