Video production - what works?

Ever have one of those days where you feel like for each forward step you take you end up taking about 12 backward? I've been stuck in that cycle for the last month or so with a project I'm working on and I look to you for input and advice.

I'm working on publishing video to the web and finding the right combination of file type, size, encryption, etc. has been rather elusive. These video's are approximately 1 minute in length and are high motion. We have tried a variety of frame sizes and as a result of course gotten a variety of file sizes. I've done some research but cannot find that there are "standards" to make this a bit easier and not being a technically minded person this hasn't been an easy task so any input would be appreciated. Have you found something that works?

  1. Hello,

    I just came across your blog and am enjoying it. As to your video issue (I assume you are still dealing with it), how are you encoding the video? Encoding video as H.264 or FLV might meet your needs. You could use FLV encoder or Sorenson Squeeze to accomplish this.

    Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Best,

    Joel
