Amination and music

[mark johnson]

I have a 1 minute long animation file that roughly 6mb large. but when i insert music into my animation using soundforge my file increases to over 200mb.

 

 

Does any one know of any freeware program that could allow you to insert music files (i.e. MPG,Wav,Avi,etc.)and cool transitions into a finished animation without increasing the file size substantialy?

Need more details:

 

- Codec you used for the original 6mb animation

- New codec you used for compiling out from soundforge or other app.

 

I guess that the new one is not compressed or encoded at a very high quality. Keep in mind that adding audio is not as simple as linking the file (for the software) each frame is recoded with the audio layer (to keep sync).
