Took the words right out of my mouth.

I recommend creating a folder for all your "assets" that you will be
creating for your video. Then save everything including your project file
into it. This would be music, stills, PS graphics, etc. That way it's easy
to burn a CD of the entire project, except the video - which is on tape with
timecode.

If you leave your music inside iTunes, it will be:
HD/Users/YourUser/Music/iTunes/iTunesMusic/ArtistName/Album/Song

If you change the location in iTunes Prefs, it will want to update your
entire iTunes library to reflect the new location. Then, when you go back to
regular music listening, you have to remember to switch it back to the
default buried location. Too much to remember!
