Unfortunately, there is no standard way to do it. In our projects we simply put 'media' folders in each app and when developing we map those folders with django.views.static.serve (e.g., app media folders to server.com/media/<app> and the global media folder to server.com/ media/global). In the templates we provide a media_url() function that maps the given file to the correct media path, depending on whether we're on the production server or the dev environment. E.g., this allows for putting the media files on an S3 node for the production environment while using the local runserver when developing. Most of this can be automated (scanning installed apps for media folders, generating urlpatterns, etc.) and IMHO Django should provide a standard mechanism to do this.
