    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  5 лет назад +11

      It can if people actually do the math and use custom dimensions settings on their video projects. I would do it that way, but I've found that RUclips doesn't recognize aspect ratios over 18:9. It'll still let you upload them and display them, but a lot of functions like end screens, info cards, etc. won't be available. I hear ya though!

    The nice thing about longer screens on newer some newer phones like the note 9 (my new fav phone) is that either there is black edges for things that don't fit the full long screen in full screen or it is like in netflix were it is croped to fit but not super croped in which is fine for me and I think that is nice instead of things being streached which would look not as good to me. You could also go into split screen mode on note 9s which I think I'd cool sometimes. Yes Aspect Ratio is the size of the screen and resolution is the quality. Thanks for the video.

    Actually, I am searching for explanation for why 1:1 ratio becomes popular nowadays especially in social medias. The closest I find it is because Instagram in early days force you to upload videos and pics in 1:1 ratio and I think that's why it becomes popular. Video with 1:1 usually has caption in the top and bottom of the video.

    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  4 года назад +7

      It depends on the screen you're watching on. A phone screen has different dimensions from a computer monitor or a laptop screen. Different devices will display the same aspect ratio with different size letter boxes depending on the screen size.

    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  4 года назад +2

      I watched initially on my computer, and it had the pillar boxes regardless of how I watched. But I'm assuming you're watching from your phone because I switched to my phone and can now see how it fills the whole screen when the phone is upright and has the pillar boxes when I turn it. I'm guessing it's a 1:1 aspect ratio because what happens is that the black space is automatically generated by the viewer depending on how you have your screen rotated. If the person put 1:1 footage in a 16:9 timeline, then it would have the black space regardless of how you watched. But if you actually set the timeline to 1:1 (3840x3840 for 4K or 1920x1920 for FHD) then it will only have the black space automatically generated by your video player when you watch on a widescreen view.

      @@CamberFilmSchool I hear you. Thanks a lot for looking it out for me. 💯% agreed. But my question is when you watch it on your PC in normal view (without full screen) and you see there is white empty space around the video. That is unclickable part. When you watch it in full screen, that white unclickable part becomes black part and you can click on it and pause it too. I tried uploading the video in same way but YT automatically creates a white part for me which is clickable and a part of my video. In this case of this video it's something that YT maybe missed it or it's a different concept. I hope you're getting me. I want to upload a video like that

    What about 2:1? For me it's the best compromise of all. Not overly exaggerated in width while keeping a fair amount of vertical content . I've been adopting it for some years now. I shoot in 3:4 and then crop 2:1 in post. Adding to this, in 16:9 displays the resulting horizontal black bars are also significantly reduced, which produces a very comfortable viewing experience. I find it odd that this AR is very rarely considered mentioned in literature. I wonder why. What do you think?

    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  5 лет назад +1

      I use Final Cut Pro, so I can't give you any detailed info on how to set things up in premiere. But there are two main ways to get the 2.35:1 or 21:9 aspect ratio for your video. You can either just set you project dimensions at 16:9 (1920x1080 for HD) and add the letterboxing to your video (which you can find downloads for letterboxes at all kinds of video resolutions like HD, 4K, 8K, etc.) The other way would be to set your project dimensions to 21:9 by manually setting the pixels to 1920x864 for HD. then you would just move your 16:9 footage around within that 21:9 aspect ratio project file to get it framed how you want within those dimensions. 👍🏼

    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  5 лет назад +1

      @@lionroots11, it's simply a math problem. If you are trying to do 21:9 aspect ratio then you take the width, which is 1920 for FHD and divide it by 21 (which is 91.43) and then you multiply that by 9 ( which is 822.86) to get your height. The different numbers are based on how and when people round the 91.43 before multiplying by 9. I just did 91x9 which ends up being 819. Not sure why I put 817, but when counting by a few pixels, there really isn't much difference.

      Kind of depends on the feel you are going for with the video. I've done most at 16:9 and some one also at 4:3. I'm starting to make most of my videos now at 18:9 because it fills up the most space on smart phones now (gonna make a video on that soon). Can you tell me more about what kind of music video it is?

      @@lionroots11, if you're wanting to get the 21:9 aspect ratio, there are two different ways to do it. You can just do you normal project in 16:9 that your camera puts out and add the black bars for the 21:9 ratio (you can find lots of downloads for your editing program if you google it). One thing to keep in mind with this is that you need to make sure to use the right size depending on what resolution (1080p or 4K) or else it won't work right. The other way is to actually set your project dimensions to 21:9 (2520x1080) for HD and resize your clips in editing.

      Cool! I just started using 18:9 recently for my RUclips videos since it fills more of the screen on smartphones. 19.5:9 actually stretches to the ends of the screen on the new iPhones, but RUclips doesn't recognize that aspect ratio and won't allow you to use all the video features like end screens and cards.

  • @rpk5568
    @rpk5568 4 года назад +3

    Vertical video shows that the cameraman is inept. Every time I see any youtube video shot that way I yell at the monitor, "Idiot, hold the phone horizontally, you fool". If two videos of the same historic event show up in a newsroom, one vertical and the other horizontal, which one do you think is going on air? Here's a clue, the correct answer starts with the letter "H". This is so far from rocket science, that what can you say. Maybe we need TVs that auto-rotate. Practice doing this right, you'll get the hang of it.

    What about when you are just trying to watch videos. Had full screen and it just changed and now I have black bars on either side of the videos I am trying to watch. How can I get rid of the black bars on my computer. I'm not making videos, just watching. Everything has gone black. The bars on either side and the bar across the top where you can scroll down to your subscriptions.

    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  4 года назад +1

      There are three different options for RUclips video sizes when watching. There’s the default, theater mode, and full screen. But how much of the black bars you see depends on the aspect ratio of the video that the person uploaded. It they uploaded 16:9, then it’ll probably take up all of your computer screen. But if it’s a 21:9 video then there will be black bars on the top and bottom. You can’t control that.

    I prefer 21:9 ratio because it has more space to keep the on-screen keyboard and web content all in one screen in portrait position and it is a movie standard ratio in landscape position.
    Furthermore, you can split screen into 16:9 at upper and 9:16 at bottom of the screen, upper player video bottom read website or 50:50 for 2 apps same screen, which is very useful because you no need to jump apps by turn.
    Not only that, you can capture movie style video because it is 21:9 ratio and totally fit the screen nicely and capture group photo/tree building things with much wider/taller view of fields.
    Finally, if above no a great design please remember a phone mostly grasp by one hand, and 21:9 ratio has slimmer width which is very nice to grasp compare to those chubby one!

    This video is very helpful but also a little confusing since you could buy a 20" tv in say 1080p or a 40" tv also in 1080p or whatever other resolution you want.. To me, it all comes down to pixel density.. Obviously the pixel density of the 20" tv would be twice as great so the picture quality would be much better (though I don't think you could say twice as good since there are diminishing the higher the resolution number go)

    • @CamberFilmSchool
      @CamberFilmSchool  3 года назад

      Or it could be that you are looking at the same amount of pixels but they are bigger pixels on the larger screen. A cell phone can shoot 4K just like a full frame camera like the FX3, but the bigger sensor on the camera provides a better picture because each pixel can take in more light and give better information.
