The amount of space a movie occupies depends greatly on what codec was used to encode it, and home much quality was preserved in the process. A typical two hour movie could range anywhere from 200 MB (encoded in MP4) to 50 GB (hi def Blu-Ray rip).

That depends on a few things.

- Audio quality

- Video quality

- Format

The higher the quality of both audio and video, the more space is required. Also different formats can change how much space is needed.

Say you've got a blu-ray rip. This can easily be 10 to 15 GB of storage. A movie with an AVI format will only need about 1 GB.

There is not enough information even for an approximate answer to the question.

There are many multimedia formats available such as avi, flv, mpeg, mp4, mov, divx, etc. that store video in different ways and use different compression methods.

A higher resolution video requires more pixels and more memory.

A greater number of color changes in any part of the image requires more memory. A color video would require more information stored than a black and white video.

Depending on how it was encoded, it may take up from 700 MB to 10 GB.

Depends on camera on device. New iPad or 4S will definitely accumulate lots more gigs than lower devices
