Probably should go in the video sections, but just go into output format and choose a lower qualtiy

You are probably saving it in an uncompressed format like .AVI
What you want to do is save it in the codec H.264 it is a high quality compressed codec.

I don't make much videos but I PM'd iDuels2010 on Youtube asking what file format he used and he said H.264. If you don't know him, I suggest you check him out ASAP :p

i know, h264 is really the best because it's a hq codec of mp4, but it isn't a compressed format...just this

At least I can fight
How long is 2gb worth of your video? Because that's not that bad if it's a long time.
