Hello @chicagopig,
You cannot resize videos on WordPress.COM like you do with images.So what you can do is use free video converters like format factory to manually resize(change the resolution) or change the format of your video file so that the file size is reduced.
However, if you are on a WordPress.COM Premium or WordPress.COM Business, you can use VideoPress to upload your videos on WordPress.COM which supports various formats like .mp4, .m4v, .mov, .wmv, .avi, .mpg, .ogv, 3gp and .3g2.
So convert your video to any one of these formats and see which once produces the lowest file size.
You can also try uploading file sizes up to 1.4 GB with VideosPress, but your experience may vary. Remember, uploading big files can take a long time!

This helps a ton! Thanks so much! I did upgrade to premium because I wanted to be able to use video and sound on my blog! So I’ll check out all the options in VideoPress.
