The higher the bit rate, the larger the file size. Also, when iMovie<\/strong> creates a movie the added structure involved in doing that adds some file<\/strong> size beyond the original size<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n You asked, why does iMovie<\/strong> make files bigger? This is because of the much higher bitrate of the pro res format. So what you are doing is exporting at a much higher bitrate than the bitrate of the clip that you originally imported. Therefore much larger file<\/strong> size<\/strong>. Also, iMovie does not support 2.7k resolution, and that’s why it got reduced to 1080p.<\/p>\n In this regard, how do I reduce file size in iMovie? <\/p>\n Beside above, why does iMovie<\/strong> videos take up so much space? If after deleting unneeded projects and events, iMovie still takes up lots of disk space, you can further clear disk space on iMovie by deleting render files of iMovie. On iMovie, open Preferences. Click Delete button next to Render Files section.<\/p>\n Also know, why does video size<\/strong> increase<\/strong> after editing? Usually, this happens when you shoot using a codec like H. 264 which has a lower bitrate than higher-quality codecs. Then, after editing when you share or export your edit, the software uses a codec with a much higher bitrate. The result is a much larger file<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Your Mac’s hard drive probably has temporary files you don’t need. These files often take up disk space for no good reason. Mac OS X tries to automatically remove temporary files, but a dedicated application will likely find more files to clean up.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Video Dimensions (in pixels) Larger resolution videos will dramatically increase file size. As you can imagine a video that is 1920 x 1080 (1080p) will have a larger file size than a video that is 1280 x 720 (720p). A 1080p video has more horizontal lines (more information), thus making the video file size larger.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Why is the edited video size bigger than the original video? Usually, this happens when you shoot using a codec like H. 264 which has a lower bitrate than higher-quality codecs. Then, after editing when you share or export your edit, the software uses a codec with a much higher bitrate.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Remove unnecessary images, formatting and macros. Save the file as a recent Word version. Reduce the file size of the images before they are added to the document. If it is still too large, save the file as a PDF.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Compressing Video MOV Files on Windows The quickest way to turn a MOV file into a zip file on Windows is by locating the file, pressing and holding the right mouse button on the file and selecting Send to from the popup menu. As the destination, select Compressed (zipped) folder from the menu.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Although video compression shrinks files, it may also impact video quality. Video encoding, however, compresses your video files without compromising quality. With encoded videos, the gigabytes of data become mere megabytes. And your content becomes compatible with many devices and platforms.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n How do I compress (MP4) video files from 1GB to 10MB? Open an online compressor service, click the Choose Files button, and select the source large MP4 video. Click the Compress Now button to upload the source file. Click the Compress More Videos to upload more video files.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n After composing your email, click Attach File. Find the video you want to attach. Right-click the video file and click Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder. After Windows zips the video, attach it to the email and send it on its way.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n It is a quick fix if you are using an adobe media encoder for exporting video, just decrease the bitrate from the export panel, drag down the export menu below to see the bitrate option, decreasing it will reduce the file size as much as you want.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The “Fit” crop setting keeps your video in its original aspect ratio without cropping anything. It adds black bars to the top or sides to make the video “Fit” the 16:9 aspect ratio of iMovie. The cropping problem may be happening because you have your iMovie preferences set to “Crop to Fill”.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Answer: A: When that message appears, it should not be ignored. The only way to stop it from appearing is to increase available storage space so that your Mac can continue to work normally.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The higher the bit rate, the larger the file size. Also, when iMovie creates a movie the added structure involved in doing that adds some file size beyond the original size. You asked, why does iMovie make files bigger? This is because of the much higher bitrate of the pro res format.
