Frame it for Shorts

A wide recording doesn't fit Shorts, where viewers expect a vertical frame. Crop videos for YouTube Shorts reshapes it without re-recording.

Portrait 9:16 preset

Choose Portrait (9:16), the vertical shape YouTube Shorts uses, or pick Custom to draw a different frame.

Focus on the story

Crop out the extra parts of the screen so the central element of your story fills the frame.

Positioned by you

Drag the crop box to the best position so your content is framed well for viewers on mobile.
