How do I make my imovie video 50mb?

When you shared out, did you try selecting "Custom" quality and moving the slider as far to the right as you could? If not, try that and then check the size of the video.

Another thing you can try is to share it out as an "Email" under the "Small" setting. After it shares out, an Email address box window will pop up with your video in it. Depending on your email provider's limitations on file size, you may not be able to send it to yourself. But, you may be able to drag the video to your desk top and then you could check its size, which hopefully will be smaller than your previous effort.

If nothing is working, you may need to do some selective editing by shortening some of the clips by a few seconds here and there. There is no movie that can't be edited down a little bit more, and it may even make it better.

Only other thing that I can think of is to use the free download, MPEG Streamclip to reduce the size of the vid. If you go that route and need directions, post back. It's a little bit more teckie.

Hi, Person,

You can reduce the file size by exporting/sharing at a lower quality and resolution. You will have those options in the share selection box that you get when you share out to file. That will let you reduce the file size without making the video shorter. Experiment with it a little until you get the result you want.

Best,

Rich

Glad it all worked out for you.
