Sending footage to producer

I'm sending my footage to a producer. I have the footage from one P2 that's about 2.5G, so that one;s easy to fit on a DVD. The other is about 7.5G. It won't fit on a DVD and I don't want to send my Lacie.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
 
Buy a dual layer (8.4GB) DVD?
Otherwise, compress it out to another format for viewing/offline editing - that's pretty much all I can think of :)
 
What NLE are you using?

If FCP

Just convert the files to quicktime using the log and transfer tab. This way each clip is one simple file.

Find your scratch disk and save the quicktimes containes therein to as many DVD's as needed.

The producer can import the quicktimes to his project and they will be at full resolution.
 
Thanks, THX. (and thanks MasterP)

Yes, I'm in FCP. I wasn't sure they could use the scratch disk quicktimes or that they'd be full resolution.

That sounds like the way to go. And easy too.
