I really needed this for a sony vegas edit but after seeing it all separate it made sense immediately. If you're on vegas, just copy the clip and then use your key frame window to fill the screen, set that clip/layer below the clip you're actually trying to show, and then just add the blur plugin and adjust accordingly.
Awesome video, thank you! Just a hint to others that might make the same mistake I did. I was having trouble resizing the bottom video layer and it's because I was using the video from an iMovie video instead of the original video clip. The iMovie had already exported in 1920x1080 so it wasn't letting me resize the bottom clip for the background. Once I realized I needed to use the original clip as filmed on my phone, then this worked PERFECTLY!
Amazing how much easier this effect is done with davinci resolve, there's an actual video effect called "blanking fill" that does exactly that, faster and with more settings. Like how would you blend the edges of the 2 clips? Thanks for the tutorial!
@@ThisGuy yeah it is really great for a free software honestly. I would have stocked with it if it wasnt for only dark themes available. I need a light one as I edit alot outside during the day. So I switched to premier 2022 arr arr. But also I was serious about my question, do you know how I would go about blending the edges of the 2 clips in a situation like this? thanks
its okay for few video, but exhausting for hundred of clip, vegas have 1 click preset for doing this call black bar fill. anyone know if premiere have one too?
@@ThisGuy Excellent. I see her training at Criminal Mastermind Babies Institution is paying off. Hahaha I’m reflecting on all the things you’ve told me she said/done this past year. 😂🙈❤️
Obviously people know how to "correctly" film horizontally. However, sometimes for certain videos people have mixed media where some is vertical and some is horizontal. In those situations, you can either zoom way in (crop the top/bottom), leave it black, or enhance the background in some way (like the blur effect). It's not as simple as people are filming things wrong in vertical and then needing to use this to fix it for horizontal...
@@michaelmickelsen5520 I never said it fixes the video. Maybe read what I wrote again about having mixed video aspect ratios that need to be in 1 single video. Let's say a wedding video that has various clips of both bride and groom throughout the years. Some clips might be vertical, some might be horizontal....So, why do you assume that the vertical clip "wasn't filmed correctly?" Again, like I said above there are a few ways to deal with this mixed media situation, and this is just one way. Plus, plenty of people like it, including myself. If you don't like it, don't use it in your videos.
I do not understand why anyone would want to do this. It’s so damn irritating to the viewer. If you’re going to blur out two thirds of the clip, why include the blurry parts at all??? Simply do all your irritating videos in portrait mode and be done with it.
You would do this in a "mixed orientation" video. Like when most of your video is in landscape, but you have a clip or some clips in portrait that you want in that video. Lots of people like the look, hence how many people have watched/commented on this video alone...I also prefer it myself (over simply leaving the sides black), most of the time.
@@ThisGuy Thanks for the reply. Still, I don’t get it. Having two blurred panels seems to me to be an unnecessary distraction - especially when a clip is shot in landscape and the two end portions of the same landscape video are blurred out leaving a center portrait view and leaving the viewer wondering what they are missing in the blurred parts. If blurring these videos out like that is such a novel technique, why is it I’ve never gone to the theater and seen a movie where the film editor did that. Apparently I’m missing the point of why you do this with CZcams video clips. Again, thanks for the polite reply . - respectfully, brax.
@@brax2364 Okay, so I'm not talking about blurring the sides of a landscape video "leaving the viewer wondering what they missing." What I'm talking about is a video with mostly horizontal/landscape clips (so it's sequence is in landscape as well) but you need to include a shot that was filmed vertically/portrait WITHIN that landscape sequence/video. At that point you could zoom it in to fill the screen (cropping off the top and bottom of that the portrait clip), leave the sides black, or be creative with the sides (ie: blurring them). If you film every clip of a video in landscape, then you're all good. If you film every clip of a video in portrait, then you're all good. If you film some in landscape and some in portrait (and want to mix them within the same video)...now you have to make some decisions...and one of the options is this blur side effect.
@@ThisGuy Here is an example that may better illustrate what I’m talking about. This video appears to have been recorded entirely in landscape but the author or whomever blurred out the two side panels throughout the clip. Do you have a suggestion on why they would do this in a clip like this one? Apologies for me beating a dead horse. czcams.com/video/7HrIC_CVOkE/video.htmlsi=R5B4TUQI9D7KJZDh

ha! thanks.
thank you my king
Is there a way to copy the effects from clip to clip so I don't have to do those steps for every one?
How can I do this faster if I have a bunch of vertical and landscape source clips ??
this helps
Is there a name for it? Also what apps can you do it on a phone?
its okay for few video, but exhausting for hundred of clip, vegas have 1 click preset for doing this call black bar fill. anyone know if premiere have one too?
thx
Nice❤
Appreciate
👍
can you do the same horizontal
Can we do with others
Is there a way to save this as a preset so it can simply be applied to an adjustment layer?
1:04 "set to frame size" doesn't do anything for me. Can someone help me? My clip is 1080/1440 and i want the frame size to be 1920/1080
Can you do this with the free version of Adobe Premiere?
as much as i love adobe premiere, making shorts are faster in filmora
how can you do this without it removing all the effects on the screen?
I don't get what you're asking? What effects are removed?
cool

Stop the side blur, it is very annoying and can cause seizures. Learn how to correctly film horizontally.
Obviously people know how to "correctly" film horizontally. However, sometimes for certain videos people have mixed media where some is vertical and some is horizontal.

It's not as simple as people are filming things wrong in vertical and then needing to use this to fix it for horizontal...
@@ThisGuy This blur doesn't fix the video. It just makes it annoying to view. If it was filmed correctly, there would be no reason for the blur.

Please don't do this. Blur makes it hard to watch videos. Simple black border would look much better.
sometimes...sometimes not...I prefer something back there myself. Blur? Faded? Duplicated? Depends on the video.
