Aspect Ratio

Aspect ratio describes the proportional relationship between a video's width and height. Common ratios include 9:16 (vertical, for TikTok/Shorts/Reels), 16:9 (widescreen, for YouTube), and 1:1 (square, for Instagram feed). Choosing the right aspect ratio is critical for platform optimization.
