How To Compress Avi?

[cpt_azad]

i wanted to make a clip out of bowling for columbine (the what a wonderful world part with the U.S. foreign policy in the past 50 years thing), so i use virtual dub and select the sequence to be copied and saved as avi (26:02 min to 28:28 min), but the projected file size comes out to be 1.7 gb!! anyone know how to prevent this from happening? if not, how do i compress the finished product? because the movie (whole thing) is only 700 mb, and that little 2 minute clip that i want is double that of the entire movie ! so any feedback would help.

p.s., anyone else find that wonderful world part a little bit disturbing? and a weird disturbing too, cuz i can't stop replaying that part, it's just too intriguing even though i have seen it a million times , i guess that's i wanted to save that part on my hd
