You need a video editing program that compresses the video with a specific codec you choose. .mpg, .mpeg, .mov, .mp4 and .wmv are popular formats. .mp4 will get the best quality/file size ratio you are looking for. You will set the bits/sec, resolution, audio frequency, and other settings to dertermine how big of a file you will end up with. Usally the more compression you use, the more pixilated the output is. Since I edit on Apple computers I am not sure what program you will want to use. (I'm guessing you are running windows) I Work with Final cut pro, After effects and Quicktime pro.
