Thread: how do i make the size of my video smaller so i can upload?

i have a video file that is over 200mb but i need it to be less than 100mb how do i do that?

you can convert it to WMV(Windows Mediaplayer Videos) .so easy to use windows movie maker. In movie maker u can export ur movie base on target file size.And if u use adobe premier pro to edit ur movie. u can export directly in wmv format by export>adobe Media Encoder

You can make a video size smaller by using video converter software to change the compression settings on the video. There are a number of software solutions for this, but in this case one of the easiest to use is Digital Media Converter. It lets you target the specific size you want, which makes it easy to go from a larger video file to a smaller video file.

Keep in mind that in some cases, converting the video will reduce the image quality. Another way to reduce the overall video size, without sacrificing video quality is to change the video dimensions before converting it. So if you have a 1920x1080 video, you can convert it to a 1280x720 video, which both reduces the resolution and reduces the size of the video, but will still look good on most portable devices.
