In this video I'm going to show you how to use Premiere Pro CC s new Auto reframe feature to quickly and automatically convert your regular horizontal footage to vertical footage to repurpose your content for social media so let's jump into Premiere Pro and get started.

All this footage is 1080p so 1920 by 1080 if we wanted to reframe this footage so we can repurpose it for Instagram vertical stories for example then the reframe feature can do this pretty easily compared to doing it all manually so manually we'd have to create a new vertical sequence and then on every single clip we'd have to change the position of it so that it lines up in the vertical space and of course that will take a lot of time if you're working with a lot of footage so the new way to do it with the reframe feature is up in the project panel window where your sequence has been created you right-click it and you simply go to auto reframe sequence then you choose the aspect ratio you want so in this case the preset set to square for us we'll do vertical 916 which is a height of 1920 and a width of 1080 then for the motion preset we'll keep it to default but you can set it to slower motion or faster motion if you like and if you've already done some motion work on the footage you can click the nest clips this will keep motion adjustments but remove transitions for us we'll just keep it to don't nest clips and then we hit create it'll analyze all the footage and then Center the subject so in this case is the puppy you can see this by going to the effect controls panel and here are all the keyframes that were created automatically using the auto reframe effect and you'll notice it's done a really great job at centering the dog in the center of the frame for all of the clips here.

And the great thing about this effect is let's say you already have a vertical sequence created you can simply drag in all of your footage in this case these are 4k clips so to have them show up properly you'd normally have to scale this back down to you know 50% or so but I'll undo that keep it on 100 and then in the effects will type in reframe and then under video effects transform you'll see auto reframe let's go ahead and highlight all of the 4k clips we just dragged into this sequence and then drag down the auto reframe and then it'll add it to every single clip and start analyzing and automatically this will not only adjust the footage and center the subject but also it'll scale down the higher res footage to match the sequence I've done a few tests with this and I find it pretty accurate if you did need to adjust it further than this I wouldn't suggest trying to change any of the position keyframes that were created instead I'd go up to the effects panel window and type in transform and then I would add the transform effect to the clip doing it this way you can set new keyframes so that your composition is exactly how you want it to be okay so that's how to reframe footage in Premiere Pro automatically to convert your footage to a vertical aspect ratio that's it for this video we have a ton of other tutorials so if you want to help us keep creating more content for you just comment down below like the video subscribe and hit the bell because that's what the YouTube algorithm likes thanks so much and we'll see you next time.
