I searched for so long and like a shining light you appeared. thank you!

[@wutzerface77]

WOW this video needs to be shared with every independent artist. You just saved me HOURS of trying to figure this out. Spotify needs to fix their Canvas program, but until them, you will be saving peoples’ lives

The girl explaining this is the cutest still.

[@shakugan73]

thanks so much for this. i've been pulling my hair out lately.
before i invest any time into Kapwing, I am curious if it's possible to import images and set them at a specific frame rate? I'm basically doing stop-motion animation, and Canva will only let me set the frame rate to whole numbers. And i'm needing a more custom frame rate. sorry this is a boring question 😶‍🌫

[@pbenson56fran]

Thanks

[@starritaelovesbts]

Can you reposition 1 video in different timestamps?

[@Kapwing]

Yes -- use the Timeline to adjust when video layers appear and disappear

[@magicalwizard99]

i was excited because your website seemed like a good solution for those with iMovie to make a canvas but your website is hardly useable. I uploaded a 3 minute video, split it into 3 short clips and made an 8 second video, but kapwing wouldn't let me export it because each clip was over 300mb therefore I already had to upgrade to premium to export my 8 SECOND VIDEO that was somehow 900MB? The 3 second clips were 300mb because my original video was 300mb and the website doesn't seem able to make a file smaller regardless of the fact that you're only using 3 seconds of a 3 minute video. not only that, but the fact that i used three different clips from the same video meant that each 300mb clip combined created a 900mb video even though all three clips were from the same video/file! it's completely befuddling that the software works this way.

thanks! ps the link is not working anymore if typing in canvas or spotify it shows up^

[@Kapwing]

thanks for pointing this out! we updated the link in description :)

[@NicolasDelfino]

If it doesn't work after following her instructions, resize the video to 900 x 1600 and it should work.

[@spiralmischief]

Thank you!! I could not get other 9:16 dimensions to work. But your simple 900x1600 solution was magic.

[@bemmyro8860]

@@spiralmischief Glad I could help, I had issue too til I did that. Happy New Years.

[@LumehillMusic]

if you want to use a video of more than 250MB you still have to pay.

The cropping didn't work. I cropped at as 19:6 but spotify is telling me it needs to be 19:6 still
