huge video files

[jeff]

hi, we record about 10 minutes of video. we then need to send it to another
person via email or other method. the 10 minute video comes out as an avi
file and is 652MB, is there a way to shrink this to a more manageable size?
thanks sue

============================
Maybe a site like one of the following
would help you transfer the file:

"YouSendIt"
http://www.yousendit.com/

"SendSpace"
http://www.sendspace.com/

"Dropload"
http://www.dropload.com/

If you can import the .avi file
into Windows Movie Maker...
Try saving the file in the .wmv
format...it will be much smaller.

In movie maker...drag the video
to the timeline and go to....File /
Save Movie File / Next / Next / Next.
