Need 8.1GB+ of VRAM to render?

Hello,

I am using a laptop with a GTX 1050 with 2GB of VRAM, Intel HD Graphics 630, I7-7700 HQ @ 2.80GHZ (base), 16 GBs of RAM, and Windows 10 Home x64 (Version 1709, OS Build, 16299.15) but when I tried to render a video, which is only 390KBs and three seconds long, it gave me an error saying it needed 8.10GB of VRAM. Thus, do I really need a GPU with 8.10GB+  of VRAM, or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you.


Edit: I figured out the issue, the video I am trying to render was shot at 2160 x  3840. I resized the video way down to 400, which seems really small? Is there a way to use the full VRAM of my GPU, rather than just a few hundred MBs for rendering? 

Thanks! 

Maybe try using this option?
