    Some of the footage is edited and I am now experimenting with how export-render it.

    The main target audience are people on educational trails downloading information about a certain spot onto their mobile. Contact to special mobile content websites will be made through Beetagg and QR-codes linking to specific pages with text and pictures or with video or audio.

    The videos therefore will very short: 60 – 150 SECONDS. Just enough to say a few words over the location or just a few shots of wildlife etc.

    The target audience definitely does not have the latest and most expensive phones, and most that have internet are on a basic scheme (that is, NO unlimited downloading). Large file-downloads would be too expensive and take too long.

    So what is the best format and export settings to achieve a good compromise?

    I tried on H264 setting, but ended up with a 23 Mb file.

    To give an update:
    Exported footage into H264 format gave me an .mp4 file of 24 Mb
    Exported footage into MPEG4 format, which gave me a .3gp file of 2.5 Mb.

    I was actually looking for how to export so it would end up as .3gp file, found it by accident because I thought that as alternative I might try MPEG4.

    The problem is that these videos are part of a pilot project on how to present tourist information through mobile content, virtually all in text and image form. The organization running it allows uploading MPEG, WMV, and AVI. When trying this, all failed, so I am now working with them to go around that.

    Any comment on this is welcome.
