Export File Size Too Big

Hey everyone,

I am exported a version of my movie to upload to google drive for my score editor and it came out of FCP7 as a wopping 70 gig file. I tried splitting it up into smaller bits but the upload time for that was about a day and a half (and then it failed).


Sooooooo...my question is:

What is the best way to convert a large file to a smaller file. Low video quality is not a problem as she only needs it for timing and such.


Should I use compressor or re-export from Final Cut? She will be opening it with Lightworks.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated!


Thanks and God bless! 🙂

Final Cut Pro 7, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
