Query about Compressor on the mac?

Im making a short film. The file size caps at about 2-3 gigs. What would be the best setting to reduce it to below 750 mbs (disk size I have to use) without totally skimping on quality. Even if quality is a bit damaged I dont mind due to the extremity of the size it is now for how long it is. Thanks guys

    Hi Dave,

    you can reduce the size by one click with the program (mac version available)

    http://www.videocompressorformac.net/

    there is a bit rate calculator for you to control by size such as inputing 500MB for output file

    as for the quality, you can choose format encoded with h264 codec for the best quality with smaller size
