- Best for
- Reframing a centered subject for vertical, square, portrait, widescreen, or 4:3 delivery when losing outer image area is acceptable.
- Input → output
- Source video becomes a center-cropped H.264 MP4 at the selected aspect ratio, with even output dimensions and AAC audio.
- Quality tip
- Preview faces, captions, controls, and action near the edges. A centered crop works best when the subject stays near the middle.
- Know before running
- The crop permanently discards outer pixels and offers no custom focal point, pan, or keyframed tracking. It re-encodes both video and audio into MP4.
- Next step
- Fade in from black to give the newly framed clip a deliberate opening.
