# Downloading media files from YouTube to your project folder

1. Go to [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/) and find the video you want to add to your project. Copy the URL.
2. Go to [YTMP3](https://yt2mp3.sc/). Paste the URL of the YouTube video in the empty field. **Important**: Click the **MP3** button to change the download type to **MP4**. Then click **Convert**.
3. When the video conversion process is complete, click the **Download** button. Then click the **Save** button. **Important**: Close any additional ads or tabs that may have opened when you clicked the **Save** button.
4. In your **Downloads** folder, rename the file (follow [JAMS file and folder naming conventions](https://techresources.gitbook.io/file-and-folder-management-windows-edition/file-and-folder-naming-conventions).)
5. Move the file to your **project folder**. You may need to [open multiple Explorer windows](https://techresources.gitbook.io/file-and-folder-management-windows-edition/opening-multiple-explorer-windows) to do this.
