Okay things that can jack up size of the video:

1- size of the video: If your video is 4096x4096 is going to be a larger file size. Render if out in 740x480

2-type of video compression: Your enty should be a Quicktime file and should have the NSTC codec. An umcompressed avi is ungodly large.

3-frames per sec: make sure your frames per sec are either 30, 24, or 29.97. If you set your frames per second to 60, 120, or 129,382,483,384 its going to be larger than it needs too

4- length of video: sometimes a program will render out 2 hours of black. Make sure your video is only the size it needs to be. Play the whole thing. If the little slider is still moving after your video is done playing, Then you have unwanted time of blackness.
