    For client approval we pretty much do the following:

    Export Same as Source.

    Compress using Sorensen Video 3 Pro Codec
    700kbs
    320X240
    30 Keyframe
    Smoothing
    uLaw 2:1 Audio @16Bit 22k Mono

    This pretty much does what you are asking for.
    Remember, it’s client approval not Mastering so a quality concession needs to be made. Though our clips look really good and are still retain good clarity.
