How to make youtube videos look clean?
I shot some footage with the red camera and now I’m trying to upload my footage onto youtube.
My final product was 1920×1080. So youtube says to compress your video to 320 x 240. Only problem is my footage on youtube still looks horrible.
Here is my footage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oggnz5XWMG8
I want to get a great clean look like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FPSYb-h_BE

The footage you linked from 599 Productions isn’t very clean but they are one of the premier RED shooters around. So I know how clean the source was.
You can upload to Youtube now at 1280×720. I’d suggest doing that with a bitrate around 6 Mbps and see if you like what you get. Here is something I shot and uploaded today:
Go here to see the HD version (be sure to select watch in HD):

Great, thanks for the help!

Actually, should I use the h.264 streaming Setting?
And how do I change the bit rate?

I’ve updated my YouTube articles on Ken Stone’s site:

It includes a couple of Compressor presets that you can use as a good starting point for encodes bound for HD display on YouTube.
