This wikiHow teaches you how to rotate a video using Adobe Premiere Pro to your preferred orientation and aspect ratio.
Step
Step 1. Start or open a project in Adobe Premiere Pro
You can do this by double-clicking the purple app icon with the words " pr", then click File in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
- Start a new project by clicking New… or open an existing project by clicking Open….
- If the video you want to screenplay is not already in the project, import the video by clicking File → Import….
Step 2. Click and drag the video you want from the "Project" tab to the Timeline
Step 3. Click on the video to select it
Step 4. Click Effect Controls
This tab is in the upper-left side of the window.
Step 5. Click Motion near the top of the "Effect Controls" menu
Step 6. Click Rotation near the center of the menu
Step 7. Enter the desired degree of rotation
Enter the numbers in the column on the right Rotation.
- To flip the video screen upside down, enter the number "180".
-
If you want to rotate the video screen between portrait and landscape, enter "90" to rotate clockwise, or "270" to rotate counterclockwise.
- Rotating the screen this way can make some of the images disappear and will cause black lines to appear in the video clip. You can fix this by adjusting the following aspect ratio:
- Click Sequence in the menu bar, then click Sequence Settings near the top of the menu.
- Change the number shown in the " Frame Size: " section of the " Video " dialog box. For example, if the frame size reads " 1080 horizontal " and " 1920 vertical ", edit the settings to " 1920 horizontal " and " 1080 vertical ".
- Click OK, then click OK once again.
- Now the video screen has rotated and you can edit or merge it with other videos.
