Quality of self-tape submission on AA looks horrible, help!

Hey all. I've never really had this issue before, but after I upload my self-tape to actors access it looks so bad. It's only 58mb and looks fine before I upload it. Is the bad quality how casting is going to see it? Or will it look like the regular quality...

Actress friend just signed with publicist, but she doesn’t have an agent/manager yet. Is this normal? What does a publicist really do at this stage?

My friend is super talented, but I have this view of publicists as being for high profile celebrities. They may serve more purpose than I realize. Why get a publicist in the early stages of your acting career? What can a publicist really do?
