Luckily, compression doesn’t necessarily reduce video quality in an appreciable way. This may make you wonder, if the codec is making my file size smaller, will my image look worse? Does compressing video mean losing quality?Ĭodecs reduce the size of your footage, allowing for more efficient work through the entire post-production pipeline. They’re what your video codec is going to be packed up and shipped in. These types of files are called containers.
Those are simply file extensions that you see after capture or during delivery.
That’s way too much data to manage in post. For example, one minute of 6K uncompressed 12-bit RGB video would be over 100 gigabytes per minute.
We need codecs to compress and unpack our video files because uncompressed video files are just gigantic. Codec is a combination of the words compression and decompression.
