What are common formats?
Show answer
Choosing a widely supported, compressed format means your media plays for most people and stays a reasonable size.
What are simple edits?
Show answer
The most common edit is trimming: cutting away the unwanted start and end so only the part you need remains. If you recorded two minutes but need only the middle 30 seconds, you trim off the rest. Trimming both improves the clip and reduces the file size, because there is less to store. Other simple edits include adjusting the volume or joining two clips.
What is always exporting at the highest resolution?
Show answer
Top quality means a big file. Use a lower resolution when top quality is not needed.
