    Hi,

    Cicit is right.
    You need to use a compressor program like Sorenson Squeeze etc…However, the most important is that your original must have an excellent quality. What you showed us was film. A no brainer to compress.
    If you are using video though, you may also need to correct your colors, levels etc… Before you start compressing your footage.
    The populare rule is: “Garbage in garbage out”

    Salut.

    No, the sorenson with After Affects is just the codec. Sorenson Squeeze is an independent software used do compress video, here is the link for you https://www.sorensonmedia.com/

    And by the way, the trailer is not such a small file, you can get this quality with even smaller file size with Sorenso Squeeze.

    Unfortunately, there is no magic formula for compression….probably why there are professional compressionists making money at doing nothing but web compression.
    The art of getting a small size and maintain good quality is gained from years of trial and error and experimentation. Each job is different…so there is no magic bullet settings.
    Start with a good encoder like Sorenson Squeeze, Procoder and others (do some research and download some demos to find out what works for you and your budget) then start experimenting using built in encoding templates and then modifying/tweaking them to get what you want. You can spend days trying to get it right for one project, then have to start all over again for the next.
