You asked for it so here it is... this is how you can export HD video from After Effects with smaller file sizes 🙌🏼

[@RealGreekNews]

Brilliant, I had this very problem for years. Thank you.

[@ashleyhari3610]

very helpful vid sir! i was wondering if there is any app on android that exports high quality vid with low file size? thank you sir!

[@equiaux_music]

What if i render it twice in media encoder , after rendering it and rendering it again in media encoder

[@noirca]

Thank you so much! I've been struggling about the bigger file size from after effects since last year. It really works!

Thank u sooo much for this tutorial! I have a doubt: what if I need to export an alpha-channel-video like a lettering that I want to import to my premiere projects later? Is there a small-size-alpha-support in those options available in Encoder? Or in this case, do I have to expor it on quicktime-alpha-encoder in after effects itself?
