  Compressing 3 hours of footage

  Posted by Rachel Miller on July 25, 2012 at 1:07 am

  Hello,

  I have a lengthy roughcut of my documentary and I would like to export it and convert it to a quicktime mov file small enough to watch the footage on my phone. Any ideas on how to make this happen in FCP?

  Thanks,

  Rachel

  The person has an android phone. Or should I compress it when I export it and put it onto a usb flash drive and let the person take it from there?

  Thanks,

  Use the iPhone setting in compressor…when it’s done, change the .mov extension to .mp4 and it should play quite nicely on an android.
