It's important to make sure your videos fit the aspect ratio best suited for the platform you are using, be it square, horizontal, or vertical. This guide will help you with cropping and resizing your videos to fit the ratio of your chosen social media platform when sharing it.
The aspect ratio of a video refers to whether the video is horizontal (landscape mode, also referred to as 16:9), vertical (portrait mode, also referred to as 9:16), or square (a 1:1 aspect ratio)
