I am working on a 32 minute animation with a soundtrack. I have four minutes of animation done, and if I export to an avi w/ mpeg4 codec, I get an 8 MB file, or 2 MB/minute. So my 32 minute animation will eventually have a 64 MB image component.

For the audio contribution, my wav file is 168 MB, so the total avi file size should be 232 MB.

When I import the soundtrack and do the export now, I get a file 3.3 GB in size!!!! What is going on??? Is there a secret to doing efficient exports?

AS is not really good in handling audio. I recommend to use it for animation only and do the sound work in a decent video editing program. There you will have much more controls over compression and audio codecs.

As for the 3 GB file, this is most certainly a bug somewhere.
