Fitting a video into a Reel

Reels are 9:16. Post a landscape video as is and Instagram either shrinks it with bars or crops it. Resizing first means you decide what stays in the frame.

Fill crops to the middle of the frame, best for one person talking in the centre. Blurred background keeps the whole picture over a blurred copy of itself, the usual look for reposted landscape clips. Black bars is the plain version.

Keep text and faces away from the bottom of the frame: Instagram's caption and buttons cover the lower part of a Reel.

Caption your videos in minutes

Animated, word-synced captions in the styles top creators use. Upload a video, pick a style, fix any word, and export.
