Change the Frame, Not the Story
A traditional crop can cut away people, products, and important details. Reframing fits the source video inside a new canvas, then generates the surrounding scene instead of stretching the image or filling the space with black bars.
- Seven canvas ratios: 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, and 9:21
- 480p, 768p, or 1080p output profiles
- Optional text guidance for newly generated surroundings
- Designed to preserve source audio and video timing
When a wide clip is placed in a portrait canvas, the original subject may appear smaller. AI fills the surrounding space; it does not automatically enlarge or track your subject.
A simple video workflow
Reframe a Video in Four Steps
Upload a clip, choose a new canvas, and review the generated result.
- 1
Upload your footage
Choose an MP4, MOV, or M4V clip between 0.25 seconds and 5 minutes. Files can be up to 500 MB.
- 2
Select a new aspect ratio
Choose 9:16 for vertical video, 16:9 for widescreen, 1:1 for square content, or another supported format.
- 3
Guide the expanded scene
Optionally describe the surroundings you want. Leave the prompt blank to let AI interpret the scene.
- 4
Generate and review
Start the generation, then preview and download the reframed video from its result page.
One video, more possibilities
Reframe Footage for the Places You Publish
Vertical video to widescreen
Fit portrait footage into a landscape canvas and generate the missing scene area at the sides.
Square videos for social feeds
Create a 1:1 version of existing footage for placements that work better with a square frame.
Product video reframing
Prepare product footage for another placement without automatically removing parts of the original shot. Check generated surroundings when accuracy matters.
Marketing campaign variations
Make alternate aspect-ratio versions of campaign footage without filming every format separately.
Creative video outpainting
Explore a wider composition or more surrounding scenery with optional AI guidance.
Why generate new surroundings?
More Than Cropping or Stretching
Traditional cropping
Cuts away parts of the existing image to fill a different aspect ratio.
Black bars or blurred backgrounds
Keeps the visible content but fills unused space with plain or blurred areas.
Stretching
Distorts the original image to match the new dimensions.
AI video reframing
Fits the original frame into a new canvas and generates surrounding visual content to fill the remaining space.
AI reframing is useful when preserving the visible composition matters more than filling the new screen with a tightly cropped subject.
Before you generate
Get More From Your Video Reframe
Start with clear footage
Well-lit clips with recognizable subjects and backgrounds give the model useful visual context.
Think about the new canvas
A wide video in a tall frame may need substantial new scenery. Consider how large the source subject will appear.
Keep guidance specific
Describe the environment, lighting, or scenery to extend. Avoid instructions that conflict with what is already visible.
Review moving details
Watch the full clip, especially around moving people, hands, objects, and the edges of the original frame.
Check important product details
Generated areas may introduce details that were never captured. Verify branding, products, and signage before publishing.
Choose quality for your project
Select an available output profile based on your delivery needs and estimated credit cost.
Generative video expansion
AI Creates New Scenery — It Doesn’t Recover Unseen Footage
Areas beyond the original frame are AI-generated interpretations of what might be outside the camera’s view, not footage that was recorded. Motion, lighting, object details, and scene continuity can vary.
What the tool does
- Changes the video canvas to a supported aspect ratio
- Generates additional scenery around the fitted source
- Accepts optional guidance for expanded areas
- Produces a video using the selected output profile
- Is designed to preserve the source timeline and audio
What it does not guarantee
- Guarantee an exact reconstruction of the unseen environment
- Guarantee perfect continuity in every generated frame
- Automatically track or enlarge the subject
- Guarantee pixel-perfect preservation after video processing
- Produce identical results across separate generations
Review the output before publishing, especially when working with people, products, or important scene details.
Frequently asked questions
AI Video Reframing FAQ
What is AI video reframing?
It places the complete source video onto a canvas with a different aspect ratio and generates surrounding areas to fill it. The workflow is designed to expand the frame instead of cropping away the source.
Can I turn a landscape video into a vertical video?
Yes. Upload a landscape clip and select 9:16. The original frame is placed inside the vertical canvas and AI generates the surrounding areas.
Can I change a video aspect ratio without cropping?
Yes. This workflow uses generative outpainting instead of cropping the source to fill the new canvas. The original image may occupy a smaller portion of the final frame.
Can I turn vertical videos into widescreen videos?
Yes. Choose 16:9 or another supported landscape ratio. AI generates new visual content around the source to fill the wider canvas.
What aspect ratios are supported?
The available ratios are 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 21:9, and 9:21. Custom ratios, including 4:5, are not currently offered.
Will the original video audio be preserved?
The reframe model is designed to retain the source audio and timing. Review the completed output before publishing, since processing can introduce differences.
Can I describe what AI should generate around the video?
Yes. Add optional text guidance for the expanded surroundings. If you leave the prompt blank, the model interprets the source automatically.
What video length is supported?
The source duration can be from 0.25 seconds to 300 seconds. Longer videos may require more processing time and credits.
What file types can I upload?
The uploader accepts MP4, MOV, and M4V videos up to 500 MB.
Will generated areas match every frame perfectly?
Generative expansion can vary across scenes and motion. Review the full clip for edges, moving subjects, and scene continuity before using it in a finished project.
Does reframing improve the original video resolution?
The output profile sets the reframed video resolution. This workflow changes the canvas and generates surroundings; it is not a dedicated restoration or upscaling tool.
Can I use reframed videos for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts?
You can create 9:16 videos for these destinations. Review the framing and generated content, and check each platform’s publishing requirements before uploading.
How many credits does video reframing cost?
The workspace estimates credits from the source duration and selected output profile before you start. The server measures the uploaded video for final billing.
What happens if video generation fails?
If a provider job fails, the platform marks it as failed and refunds reserved credits through the existing video-job refund flow.
Does the tool crop or stretch my original video?
The source is fitted inside the target canvas. The workflow does not intend to crop the source or stretch it to fill the new aspect ratio; AI generates the remaining area.
Will the original subject stay the same size?
Not necessarily. The source is fitted into the target canvas, so a wide video in a vertical format can make the subject appear smaller. The tool does not promise automatic subject tracking or enlargement.
Make Your Existing Video Work in a New Format
Keep the original composition visible while preparing vertical, square, or widescreen versions. Upload your footage, choose a supported ratio, and let AI create additional surroundings.
