Remember how I clicked Create New and you saw Movie and Trailer there. So instead let's create the project in a different way. But that doesn't always work because you're going to be cutting off lots of things at the top and bottom. Now you can, if you want, click on Crop here, use Crop to Fill and select an area of this vertical video to enlarge and fill the horizontal frame and now you have horizontal video.

Now if we look at this video you could see I've got a horizontal video here with the vertical video imbedded in the middle of it. If I go to Export it using File, Share, File, or any of these options you could see I get black boxes on the left and black boxes on the right and the entire video fits in the middle. I've got black bars on the left and the right. So now you could see the vertical video here in a horizontal space. If I choose Movie, as I normally would, I get a normal movie here and I can drag and drop into it some vertical video shot on the iPhone. There's actually a third option that we're going to see in a minute. If I go to create a new project you'll see there are two options, Movie and Trailer. But there is a way in iMovie to edit vertical video and produce vertical video as a result. You have to edit it in horizontal format. If you edit this video in iMovie you can't edit it in vertical format. So let's say you took some video with your iPhone but instead of holding it horizontally when you shot the video you held it vertically. Join us and get exclusive content and course discounts.
