How do you render good quality videos in After effects?
I need quite a bit of help. I just got 2 new things, a GoPro HD camera and Adobe After Effects CS5. I am somewhat familiar with After effects, and I know the basics to editing video. But when I go to render my videos, they turn out to be a massive file. I want to keep the HD film and audio, but I don’t want the file to be huge so that I can upload them to YouTube. The video is about 6 minutes long, filmed in 960p HD quality, but the file after rendering is over 50GB big. Is there any settings to change to get not such a huge file size? any help is appreciated.
well if you have added effects to the composition then it will increase the file size. you could always make the composition smaller and make the video smaller. OR/AND you can lower the frame rate. you could also maybe lower the colors slightly. but AE doesn’t like small files it likes to increase file size to make sure for it to be of superb quality. but it’s just those small tweaks and little ticks your need to do. since you know the basics try to lower frame rate+skip a few frames, decrease video size (can be done in composition setting).
There is a way you can kinda cheat, where you play the 50GB video and get a recorder to record the video and add the sound in manually but not sure how the quality will come out might not be HD any more but will be the closest you might be able to get.
