How to render a final edited video So, here's the deal. I have a few clips and transitions in my sequence editor that make a complete 20 second video. Now when I save it, it's saved to my output folder as a BLEND1 file. I need to convert/render it to either an AVI or MOV, basically something I can upload to YouTube. Not sure how to do this. Any help would really be appreciated!
you need to RENDER your video - use the "properties" panel for this.

PS.- don't forget to check the "sequencer" and uncheck the "compositor" under "post processing".
