Detailed Steps to Resize Video in Davinci Resolve

While editing videos, you may change the aspect ratio of the video to change the size of the video to upload on different platforms like YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram. Videos come in different sizes and shapes. Some videos are portraits while the others are landscapes. Similarly, videos are captured in different places with different devices. So, we need to set a certain size of the video.

Definitely, a very large video can make delays in the work, similarly, a small size video can result in low resolution and bad quality. Resizing a video saves a lot of time and money whether you have a business, a YouTube channel, a short film, or a feature film. Today, we shall discuss how to resize the videos?

The two free ways to resize the video…

Here are a number of tools used in the market to resize the videos. We are going to teach How to resize the video in Davinci resolve and Fimora wondershare. Once you have mastered How to resize a video, it would be as simple as the ‘click’.

Now the good news is, you can dramatically export the videos in the same resolution in a very short time.

Let’s dive in !

Part 1. How to resize video in Davinci Resolve

Davinci Resolve is a very powerful tool to edit videos. Let’s suppose, you have some videos shots and all the videos have different sizes, some of the videos fit in the timeline and some are out of the timeline. No matter, you are going to make a video on the same scale with the same size.

Resize the video can be done in three ways:

  1. Zoom in zoom out
  2. Cropping
  3. Retime and scaling

1. Zoom in and Zoom out

First of all, select the videos in your timeline. You should stay in the middle of the frame to set it because it’s too wide. The timeline moves forward and backward. Let your video be 4k, go to the bottom-right corner and click on timeline format. Select timeline resolution, select ultra HD, or whatever you want from the drop-down list.

resize-video-davinci

Go to the inspector from the up-right corner and select Transform under the video section. Here you can resize your image. Place the mouse over zoom x (Horizontal) and zoom y (vertical) values to drag left or right for zoom in or zoom out. The video can be resized accordingly.

Here you can also change its rotation.

resize-video-davinci

2. Cropping

Go to the inspector from the up-right corner and select Transform. Now choose Cropping. Here are four options Crop left, crop right, crop Bottom, and crop Top. You can drag the scale from left to right to adjust the crop settings according to the desired result.

resize-video-davinci

3. Retime and scaling

Go to the inspector from the up-right corner and select retime and scaling. You can choose stretch, Fit, Fill, or crop for cropping the video from the drop-down list.

  • The Crop function is used to remove the unnecessary or uneven part of the video.
  • The Fit function is to have the video auto-center and the selected clips are formatted according to the screen dimensions.
  • Stretch Function allows changing the length of the certain clip at a certain duration.

Video Editing is a craft that is highly dependent on various characteristics of your video. But the way one presents it or goes about filming clips also has a profound effect on the end product. And as you may know, not every aspect of a video production activity always goes without hiccups. But editing can come in clutch as it can easily solve minor problems like skewed footage that was shot at the wrong angle or is upside down (an issue that can happen while using mobile phones).

Thus, with this article, we will be looking at steps to rotate a video in Cyberlink PowerDirector to help you when required. We have also mentioned the steps you will need to follow in Wondershare Filmora.

Note: We documented the steps in this guide with PowerDirector 365 and WonderShare Filmora X.

Put yourself in a situation where you’ve just finished filming a project with your smartphone but end up realizing that the footage isn’t in the right orientation by default. While the error has an easy fix on most smartphones, you can also perform this action with video editing tools.

Also, while this form of rotating might be the most basic implementation of the feature, you can often use the feature to add a dynamic nature to your video with Keyframes.

Definition: Keyframes in Video Editing is a software feature that allows an editor to set start and endpoints (denoted by In and Out Markers), presenting the opportunity to custom clip properties between the two positions. The set changes occur gradually as the playhead continues moving through the clip. Properties that can undergo modification with this method are zoom, rotation, colors, positions, etc.

The process of rotating clips is fairly straightforward; once you have PowerDirector 365 open, follow the steps listed below.

If you do not have CyberLink PowerDirector 365, download the software by visiting Cyberlink’s official website.

Step 1: Create a new video project in Cyberlink PowerDirector 365 and choose Full Mode.

rotate-videos-powerdirector

Note: Full Mode in Cyberlink PowerDirector 365 will provide users access to a full-featured video editing tool similar in function to Wondershare Filmora. The other option available is Ad Designer.

Step 2: Now, import media onto the Timeline from the Media Library.

For this guide, we used the pre-existing stock footage in Cyberlink PowerDirector.

rotate-videos-powerdirector

Step 3: Now, click on the video file on the Timeline; this will activate the video in the Preview Window. And it will provide you with access to the rotation circle, allowing you to change the orientation of the source file.

rotate-videos-powerdirector

EXTRA

Rotation added in the PiP Designer will function as a keyframe-based rotation action. Right-click on the video in the preview window, choose Edit and then Modify to access this menu.

rotate-videos-powerdirector

Following this, you can click on the Motion Tab, go into Rotation Settings, and modify the angle with greater precision. In the Preview Window, you will now be able to see the rotating video.

An Easier Way to Crop Video with Wondershare Filmora

Though Cyberlink PowerDirector 365 is a powerful video editing tool, we felt its menus were not as simple to navigate. Accessing the rotate function while available in the forefront, the use of PiP Designer didn’t feel intuitive.

In Wondershare Filmora Video Editor , rotating footage only happens via the Edit Option, and this straightforward approach felt simple. As for those who want to use Keyframes, the integration of this feature right above the Timeline is an appreciated convenience.

This emphasis on quick accessibility is present with almost every function in Filmora, and we believe this to be a significant advantage. The use of modern and unique iconography also increases familiarity, an aspect that will always be welcoming to new and budding creators.

If you do not already have Wondershare Filmora, you can download the software by visiting the official website.

To help you learn how to use the rotate function and show you an example of the easy accessibility in Filmora, here is how you can use the feature to get the output you desire.

Step 4: Click on the Transform Menu and use the Rotation Slider to edit the orientation.

The Bottom Line

This marks the end of our guide on how to rotate video in PowerDirector 365 and Wondershare Filmora X. Now, while both software are high-capable tools, we feel the keyframe-based working on rotation in Filmora is a lot more intuitive and easy to use. The ability to only have number-based rotation within the edit menu is also a positive, as rotating with a swivel like in PowerDirector isn’t always the most accurate.

And lastly, the modern iconography-based design of Wondershare Filmora is a factor to keep in mind, as this increases usability manifolds.
