Use this interactive demo to learn how to compress your video in Clipchamp.

‍

‍

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to compress a video in Clipchamp.

‍

  1. Click Import media and select your video.
  2. Click Open.
  3. Drag your video clip onto the timeline.
  4. If needed, you can make edits like trimming or removing portions of your video clip.
  5. Click Export on the upper-right corner of your screen when you’re done.
  6. Under Quality, choose a lower resolution output.
  7. Change file name and click Export.
  8. Wait for Clipchamp to finish processing your video.
  9. You now have your video in a smaller file size. 

‍

Note: Keep in mind that lower resolution gives smaller file size but lesser quality output. Also, this method only works for clips with high bitrate.

📌 Why this matters

Video compression lets you upload files faster, share them via email or messaging apps, and save precious storage space on your devices and cloud accounts. Beyond the obvious file size benefits, compressed videos load more reliably for viewers with slower internet connections, making your content accessible to a broader audience.

You'll also find that many platforms automatically compress uploads anyway, so doing it yourself first gives you control over the quality balance rather than leaving it to unpredictable algorithms.
