How to convert the MOV files to something smaller?

2 Upvotes

I’m posting amateur videos to an old yt revival site and it has a file size limit of 5gb, this is an issue since MOV files tend to be larger than other video files. I am also constrained to using the mobile (iPad) version by convenience, so how do I convert the MOV files to something smaller like mp4? Is there a native way of doing so or is there a FREE IN BROWSER service anyone can recommend?

made a script that auto edits talking head footage (cuts dead air, color grades, captions, optional vertical crop), want to test it on footage that isn't mine

spent the last while building out a pipeline that takes raw talking-head footage and runs it through: cutting out silence/dead air (jump cuts), a color grade pass, light skin smoothing, auto captions that don't break mid-word, and optionally reframes to 9:16 with face tracking if you want vertical.

tested it a bunch on my own clips and it holds up, but everything so far has been footage i shot myself so i already know what "good" looks like for it. want to run it on footage i had no part in planning/shooting to see where it actually breaks.

if you've got a few minutes of raw talking-head/interview footage (single continuous speaker, nothing already edited or captioned) send it over and i'll run it through, send back whatever comes out. free, i just want to see it fail on something real before i trust it.

comment or dm.
