Best way to send big files / footage to someone?

[HardWorkinFilmSlave]

Some cameras create huge video files. What is a great way of sending those to some people or clients?

How much footage? A lot of people use dropbox. I personally find it to be a little wonky. Depending on how much footage, I'm actually kinda fond of wetransfer. If you have access to a server, FTP transfer is unquestionably the fastest way to do it online.

We Transfer has been great for me recently. Max file size is 2gb and you don't need to create an account or anything.

Please define 'huge'.

Are we talking about 30GB of rushes from a weekend shoot on 5D, or 1TB of footage from a 5-day RED Epic shoot?

When in doubt, you could always mail physical media. Just make sure to get it back and figure the cost (media and/or shipping) into your budget.
