Hi Helen!
Happy to help with this!
To clarify, have you turned off video compression for the MP4 videos added to your course? Doing so causes published files to become larger. If not, you can try a tool called Handbrake to reduce the size of your video files. This article outlines the steps!
Also, it's helpful to keep in mind that Storyline retains temporary assets in case an author needs to click Undo, to restore them. The good news is your .story file will eventually shrink, usually after saving it a couple of times. You can also help it shrink by saving and closing the project file, then re-opening it and saving it again.
Please let me know if you have any more questions!
