You asked for feedback, please don't tell anyone to stop. ;-)
Honestly, you are asking about basics of video encoding in general, not
about ffmpeg. There are much better places to read up on this.
This is why your input is too hazy:
We might tell you that you can use a more efficient codec, such as
HEVC. You might come back and tell us "my device can't play that" or
"encoding takes way too long".
We might tell you to reduce resolution. You might come back and tell us
"but all the details are gone".
We might tell you to reduce the bitrate. You might come back and tell us
"but the quality is really horrible".
You need to be more precise in what you want to achieve (and perhaps
why).
Cheers,
Moritz
