Producing a video
Hello. I’m new to AE. I have just finished editing a video. Now I want to produce it, do i click on “make movie” ?
I’ve tried several options and it seems that it can produce into a MASSIVE avi. how do i shrink it without losing quality ? i want to produce in mp4, so that it’s small in size but good in quality. -

and FAQ: What is the best format for rendering and exporting from After Effects?As you’re new to AE, I would highly recommend you start here:
