Portrait video

Turn landscape footage into vertical social clips

ClipStudio analyzes the selected moment and reframes it for portrait video. The crop can move as the shot changes instead of staying fixed at the center.

Questions

Will portrait video stretch my footage?

No. ClipStudio crops and reframes the source rather than stretching it.

Can the crop change during a clip?

Yes. The framing can follow scene and subject changes within the selected moment.

Your next clip is already in the video.

Let ClipStudio find it, frame it, and caption it.
