Vertical framing
Convert horizontal stage recordings into 9:16 clips. Review performer framing, movement and caption placement before export.
The workflow starts from the original horizontal composition and stage movement.
A time-varying crop is calculated to keep the active performer in the vertical frame.
Movement is smoothed so the crop does not chase every tiny detection change.
The clip remains an editable project; visual review is still required before export.
Practical example
A fixed center crop can lose the comedian when they move into a physical act-out. A follow crop shifts with the stage movement while leaving enough breathing room for gesture and captions.
Before you start
Use a stable wide or medium-wide shot, keep the performer well lit and avoid placing essential stage action at opposite edges simultaneously.
No. The crop can move over time to follow the performer, subject to the quality and clarity of the source footage.
No. Difficult lighting, occlusion and rapid camera movement can require manual review or a different source.
Yes, but the final combination should be previewed because caption size and platform overlays affect the usable safe area.
