Here’s how to pick the perfect aspect ratio to match your content.
Choose the video aspect ratio
After clicking 'Create Project', you’ll be prompted to pick one of three aspect ratio options:
Horizontal (16:9): Best for YouTube, widescreen content, or landscape-style videos.
Vertical (9:16): Ideal for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Stories.
Square (1:1): Great for general social posts.
Simply click on the one that fits your vision, and you’re good to go!

Upload media to match aspect ratio
If you’re not sure which to choose or you want to jump straight in with your media then you can easily upload your footage to the Media panel by clicking the ‘Upload media’ button, and the editor will automatically match its aspect ratio.

Resize your video later
If you change your mind, no problem! Firstly, make sure you have not selected any clips, and then head to the Details tab in the top-right corner and select the Sequence ‘Resolution’ toggle to pick a new aspect ratio. Here, you will also find the 4:5 option, a great format for carousels and social ads.
