Video Embedding
Vimeo is one of the best video hosting and sharing platforms, particularly when it comes to video privacy settings. I highly recommend "Hide from Vimeo" option.
Is your project set for adaptive quality? If so, the you'll have multiple versions of the video in you output, adding to the size. Did you compress in SL, or in something like Premiere or Resolve? You may be able to further reduce the sizes with minimal quality impact. Does the client have a server that can host the videos internally so you can take them out of the project? Linking to media is most effective at reducing size.
The video quality was set to static. The video was compressed using a small package called 'Handbrake'. I've asked about the internal hosting but I wasn't sure as to the advantages of this? Was concerned that without a dedicated video service doing the heavy lifting, that download times and quality could still be compromised, due to a slow server/poor bandwidth?
