How do you compress a video?

I put together a video for a wedding of a friend of mine for his wedding using Penical version 12. The video was 15 minutes long (lots of baby pictures). Without even adding music the video it’s over 4Gs. Is there any way to make the file smaller?

If you have Windows Movie Maker

  1. Open it up and click IMPORT VIDEO
  2. Drag the video to the timeline at the bottom of the page.
  3. Go to file > save movie file
  4. Select a place to save it on your computer
  5. In the movie settings page, under other settings dropdown menu, click video for broadband
  6. Click next to start compressing

If you don’t have movie maker, you can get it for free on the Microsoft website
