General • Filtering file types within folders

Hi!
I'm sure this is answered many times before, but I am new to Everything (loving it!) and haven't been able to relate the other answers to my scenario, and find the help docs a bit intimidating.

On a shared network drive, my company has a gazillion folders, not very organized. I'm trying to find video files for different projects, and have to search for the folder name. That's fine, I can find many folders with the correct search term. But, it would help a lot to either only list folders that have video files in them, or, list all the video files that "comes from" a folder that fit the search criteria.

Example:
Search term: "dancing monkeys"

Result option 1:
Folders:

"Dancing monkeys in November 2020"
"Jungle safari 2019, dancing monkeys doing something insane"
"another folder with dancing monkeys"

Each one of those folders contains video files. For example 1234.mp4, monkey.mov, 4281.mp4, and so on.

Result option 2:

"1234.mp4"
"monkey.mov."
"4281.mp4"

These files originates from folders containing the word "Dancing monkeys".

Would anyone be so kind to explain how I would set up such a search?
