ok I just thought I would look how much space my Raw footage was taking up since I got my new fire wire it uploads realy good quility...but takes up too much space! all my raw footage takes up 21.0 GB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How the hell do I make the like MB smaller but still keep my fire wire...and still have it food quility???

Just lower the export quality in whatever program you are using. I know that on the highest level when I exported footage once, I used 2 gigabytes per 10 minutes. Lower it mang
01 June 2005, 19:42 UTC#3
Delete the shitty shit? I burn footage to DVDs to save space since my hard drive is only 40GB
01 June 2005, 19:52 UTC#4
Ok I deleated the shit stuff now its 14.7 gb
and can you lower the export quality in windows movie maker?
01 June 2005, 20:00 UTC#5
Yeah, but you don't want to 'cause then it's wmv and shitty to edit with.
01 June 2005, 20:01 UTC#6
I compress all my raw footage into the best quality divx possible and if you have the codec and use premere or windows movie maker your good to go and a 1gb raw file is like 60mb in divx tho I only do that on my laptop cuz it only has like 60gb to start with
01 June 2005, 20:04 UTC#7
With all the HG vids I have and also the website backups I have... I now have over 30GB+
01 June 2005, 20:06 UTC#8
you could always burn them to dvds or vcds and store it that way
01 June 2005, 20:09 UTC#9
Dont bother me man. I got 2 150GB HDs.
But I will admit I have laods of dbl vids cos of site backups.

Our footage takes up 200 gb. Even with loads of it deleted after use.
16 June 2005, 11:36 UTC#19
yeah if your serious about video editing grab an extra harddrive
16 June 2005, 15:30 UTC#20
I have 2 186gb hard drives, one for music, vids, pics and anything else, other only for my footage, and I've got 60gb left, when I get to about 10gb, I'm gonna get rid of the shitty stuff, and shorten the lenght of my footage down, as alot of it is just crap.
Basically I think you should gat a new hard drive, if you can, or burn to DVD's I don't think there's an easy way to do this.
16 June 2005, 16:33 UTC#21
I would just by another hard drive. They arent too expensive..
I use a 200 gig internal and a Maxtor 200 gig external. Gets the job done. I also take every DV-AVI into premiere and cut the shit I dont need off the clip...then just export it out as a DV-AVI...it loses no quality..and cuts down on the undeeded shit. Right now I have about 1500 DV-AVI's.
16 June 2005, 16:37 UTC#22
whore!
yeah I bought an external HD so I can put all my AVI shiz on there.
