Make any video vertical for TikTok, Reels and Shorts
Turn a landscape video into 9:16 without cutting anything off: the video sits in the middle over a blurred copy of itself. Or crop it to fill the screen.
Three ways to go vertical
- Blurred background keeps the whole picture and fills the empty space with a soft, blurred copy of the video. This is the look most creators use.
- Crop to fill zooms in until the screen is full. Good when the action is in the middle.
- Black bars keeps everything with plain bars above and below.
Getting the most out of it on TikTok and Reels
The output is 1080×1920 at your video's frame rate, which is exactly what TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts expect, so they don't scale it again. Keep important text away from the bottom fifth of the frame and the right edge, where the apps put captions and buttons.

Questions
Is my video uploaded?
No. The file is read and processed inside this browser tab. It never leaves your computer, which is also why there is no size limit and no queue.
Does it change the frame rate?
No. It keeps the frame rate of your video.
How long does it take?
Every frame is redrawn and re-encoded, so it takes roughly as long as the video plays on a laptop, a bit longer on a phone. 720×1280 is faster.
