Premier 6.0 help

[freeflyguy 0]

For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get a 4 minute video down to a manageable, web friendly size.

I have read all the help files, and still, 2 gig. ugh.

Any thoughts from premier users how to get this accomplished?

Thx

2 gig for 4 minutes ?!? sounds ludicrious, even DV format is more compressed then this - did you render that movie for web vieweing ? what format did you render that at ?

you should be able to render a 4 minutes movie in MUCH less then 2 gig using premiere alone (render as quicktime for web). For best results though you might want to look into compression applications such as Cleaner - which would do much better job compressing movies for web

You should have a prog called media cleaner on the premiere disc, even if it wasn't installed, do it now.
It will help.

Thx to both, problem solved.

Which format, and settings seem to work best for the web then?

Quicktime does a nice job.

I think I have a premiere 6.0 tutorial back in my office (in a stack of cds) . It was a pretty good tutorial, and taught lots. If you're interested, let me know.
