Title: Decreasing movies sizes
Post by: MjTalon on September 29, 2009, 03:13:29 PM
Anyone know of ways to drastically decrease the size of films? I have a 10minute film exactly that's too large ( more than 2gb ) that i need to drastically resize down. Anyway to bring that huge 2gb size down a notch?

Yup. Import it into a utility such as Windows Movie Maker, Sony Vegas, or Adobe Premiere. After you render the film it should come down to around 200MB or less (if you do it right).

I use Sony Vegas to render and it came out 2.58GB  :O.

I just realized that different render file types and sizes yields smaller sizes but it's more of trial and error if you're not a movie guru. I'm currently rendering in .WMV now

Oh, didn't know that (perhaps if you mentioned it was a rendered film ;) ).

If you post the render settings, some people here might be able to point out which setting is causing the film size to bloat.
