I have made a movie! :D ...But it's too big. :( The best quality I can make it where you can still tell whats going on in it is 33 mb. Compressing it in a zip file makes it 28mb. Does anyone know how I can compress it just a little more so It will be no more than 20 mb? I appreciate your help!

What did you use to encode the movie? Windows Movie Maker? There are better encoding codecs out there. They provide getter quality with a smaller file size. DivX and XviD are good examples of these. But that's just a start, there are TONS of video codecs. Though you would probably have to use another program to encode the movie, bc I doubt WMM supports alot of codecs.

Thx
