What is the best (quickest and most efficient)
way to shrink the size of a video?

Someone sent a 11-second ".MOV" video that was
25-megabyte. I first tried to use mencoder to
convert it, but it did not work. So I used

https://cloudconvert.com/mov-to-mp4

to convert it from .mov to .mp4 and that cut the
size to about half.

Then I used www.videosmaller.com/ to convert it
to a smaller mp4.

Surely there must be a quicker, more efficient,
single-step way to get the best possible result
that still has "reasonably" good quality video.

I uploaded the current 7.5-meg result here:
