The aspect ratio that we choose is a creative choice. NOT a requirement by what is trending!
Ah, but your video has black bars top and bottom on my desktop monitor ... 16:9 fills it up.
BAD IDEA! People can just Zoom to Fill on their mobile device. Nearly all televisions are standard 16:9, you want your viewers to see top and bottom black bars? But.. mobile devices are all over the place in AR, and not all candy bar phones. Changing to 18:9, you're stretching, not cropping unless you record in a higher Res to account for this irregular and non-standard AR. Understand what happens when you stretch an image to fit rather than a proper crop in native res.
Nobody is talking about this for a reason. It's because it's a dumb idea. People, stick with 16x9
Not accepting or approving 16:9 is a federal crime
Yeah. I stopped halfway through. Watch a few 16x9 videos and came back. I'm on an iPhone 15 pro max. Watching in portrait orientation. So I have to disagree with you from my perspective. Why would I want the black bars?
Maybe I am old but, smartphones and social media should not rule aspect ratio. Even if the black bars bother me I do prefer 16:9 for my everyday exports.
Huh... with the new ratio, now my 16x9 monitor (and TV) has black bars at the top and bottom. I prefer the full 16x9 screen to be filled.
Not necessary at all
No, no. This approach gives black bars on top and below when in vertical mode on both desktop and mobile. UA-cam has a pinch to zoom functionality to automatically fill screen width, stick to 16:9
THank you for this!! I shoot on my phone currently and I can film 21:9 but I found out about the end card issue. So I really needed this work around thanks!!
Your 18x9 still uses the same area in my browser except it's a little shorter. ODD Looking. This is heading back into the old Wide screen days
please do not come up with your own magic ratios, it makes it a nightmare for everyone (such as those with projector screens who has to make a new lense preset). It's very simple: You either go 16:9 or 2.4 (21:9-ish) , that's it! no ifs and butts.
Sean, as always a great video mate. One question, would you have your settings to fit, fill, crop or stretch given the video itself was shot 16:9?
which aspect ratio has your camera sensor? :) Mine (aps-c) has round about 1.5
Is there a way to check how many people switch to horizotal on smartphones? Because honestly the black bars you get with 18:9 in vertical are way more distracting (at least for me).
Hey, just wondering, what about 21:9?
Great points. I think it still makes sense for certain content though.
Sean, sincere question, have you ever spoken to anyone who watches YT on their phone and they stated that the black bars bother them?
I've been using 2:1 aspect ratio on my videos for a while now but at the end of the day its a creative choice. I've even seen 4:3 videos that I enjoyed.
