Make a Video Vertical

Horizontal video, vertical feeds

Almost everything is filmed wide, and almost everything gets watched vertical now. TikTok, Reels, and Shorts are all 9:16, so a horizontal video has to be turned vertical before it fits. Doing that by hand, cropping and re-centering shot by shot, is slow and fiddly. Cliphi makes the video vertical for you, keeping the subject in frame the whole way through.

Vertical that looks intentional

A good vertical version does not look like a wide video with the sides chopped off. Cliphi tracks the subject so the framing follows the action, and for multiple people it cuts between them or uses a grid, so the result looks shot for vertical rather than squeezed into it.

You can output 9:16 for the short-form feeds, or 1:1 and 16:9 if you need them. And because Cliphi is a clip tool, making your video vertical is part of getting a finished clip, with captions and music applied, not a separate export step.

Most things worth posting vertical were not filmed that way, a webinar, an interview, a talk, a gameplay capture, so turning them vertical well is the bottleneck between having the footage and having something to post. Cliphi takes that bottleneck out. Paste the video, get it back vertical with the subject tracked, and move on to posting. For a long video it can pull several vertical clips at once rather than making you do them one at a time.
