Crop video

Change the visible frame without stretching the subject. Choose an aspect ratio and move the horizontal or vertical crop position to keep the important action in view.

The landscape source becomes a square by removing side pixels, not by stretching it.

How to use crop video

  1. Choose your clip and a target aspect ratio.
  2. Move the crop position and inspect the canvas preview.
  3. Export and check that faces, captions and key action remain inside the frame.

Crop, fit and resize solve different problems

Cropping fills the target frame by removing pixels outside it. A 16:9 shot cropped to 9:16 loses substantial space at both sides; move the focal point before exporting. If the whole scene must stay visible, use Resize video with padding instead. This crop stays fixed across the clip and does not track a moving person.

Crop video to a square or portrait frame

Crop video when the output must fit a different frame shape. The tool fills the selected ratio by discarding pixels outside it; it does not stretch a person or add a generated background. A wide product shot converted to a square will lose material at the left and right. Before export, check that the label, face or subject stays inside the preview throughout the movement, not only in the opening frame.

Move the crop window without distorting the subject

Choose the ratio first, then use the horizontal and vertical focus settings to reposition the crop. Only an axis with removable space can move. For example, a landscape source cropped to a square usually has horizontal space to choose from but little vertical freedom. Changing focus never changes the requested ratio. Use the original-ratio option if you want to retain the whole source frame instead of cutting its edges.

Choose crop video or resize video deliberately

Cropping removes composition; resizing changes output dimensions. This crop video tool re-encodes the selected range to WebM and caps the longest output edge. It cannot reveal content outside the original shot or track a face automatically. If the subject moves out of the chosen window, choose a wider ratio or change the crop and review the entire preview again before downloading.

Limits to check before export

  • MP4, WebM and MOV support depends on the codecs your browser can decode. A filename extension alone does not guarantee support.
  • Choose files up to 512 MB. Video exports process up to 60 source seconds at a time, in real time. Keep the tab visible and cancel if needed.
  • The output is WebM for edited video and PNG for a frame. This editor does not promise MP4 output, lossless editing or new AI-generated details.
  • Audio uses the browser audio graph; a source without sound may receive a silent audio track. Review the exported file before sharing.

Crop video FAQ

Can I crop without losing part of the picture?

A different ratio requires removing picture area or adding padding. Choose the resize tool when you want padding rather than a crop. Preview the full motion because this tool uses one fixed crop for every frame.

Is my video uploaded?

No. This editor reads the file inside your browser tab. The file, frames and typed text are not sent to Vidloop. The website has ordinary privacy-respecting page analytics.

What can I download?

A re-encoded WebM video. Choose up to 60 source seconds per export. Video output is capped at 1920 pixels on the longest edge; unsupported browsers show an error.
