in this video I'm going to show you how
0:01
you can crop a video in shortcut so it
0:05
is pretty much easy and by just
0:06
following simple steps you should be
0:08
able to do exactly that my name is Isaac
0:11
and this is a minute with AI so I have
0:13
here a video clip but I want this to be
0:15
the background the video that I want to
0:17
crop is this so let me add it here and
0:20
here we go i want to crop this image of
0:23
this lady meditating so to do so I'll go
0:27
ahead and create another timeline so
0:29
that this first video becomes the
0:31
background and this becomes the video
0:33
that we want to crop so I'll create
0:36
another track by just clicking on top
0:39
here and then select track operations
0:41
and under it I'll select add video track
0:45
and now we have two tracks let me move
0:47
this a little bit up so that we can see
0:51
it well now I'll go ahead and move this
0:54
track that I want to crop on top of this
0:58
and I want it to sit in between here
1:01
great so if I go ahead and place this
1:03
cursor here we can crop this by simply
1:05
going to filters and we have filters
1:07
here alternatively you can find filters
1:11
here in shortcut so if I click on
1:13
filters and then go click on add a
1:16
filter search here for the function
1:19
called crop and as you can see we have
1:21
various crop functions such as crop
1:23
circle crop rectangle and then crop
1:26
source and midsize matrix so I select
1:29
crop rectangle like that and now you can
1:32
see we have the border margin option
1:34
that you can use to crop so you can now
1:37
drag from this edge to crop it and as
1:40
you can see if I drag like this the
1:42
other portions will be eliminated i can
1:45
also crop from this side and there we go
1:48
i can also crop from top to bottom just
1:52
to a level that I feel I'm comfortable
1:54
and that is it now the problem is I
1:56
can't see our background video and the
1:58
reason why I seeing this black is
2:00
because we have the padding color here
2:02
which is black so to remove it just go
2:04
ahead and tap on transparent and if I
2:07
tap on transparent and now you can see
2:09
it exposes our background video now the
2:12
next thing is to move this cropped video
2:14
so that it does not block our background
2:16
video the problem is if I go ahead and
2:19
just move it here it is still too big
2:22
and our background video will still be
2:24
hidden so to solve this problem just go
2:27
and click on filters here and then add a
2:30
filter and then from here look for size
2:33
position and rotate and here's the
2:35
function so if I tap on this I can now
2:39
this and as you can see it is being
2:43
applied so I can also move it and place
2:45
it at a corner here just to a position
2:47
that I feel I'm comfortable so I'm
2:50
comfortable with that size now let's go
2:52
ahead and play it and see and now look
2:57
that great so that's how you crop a
2:59
video in shortcut if this video was
