  • Abode Premiere Cc: Cropped image wont re fill composition :-(

    Posted by David Honan on September 10, 2014 at 1:21 pm

    Hi from 20 degrees C York UK,

    This link illustrates my problem:

    https://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/crop-but-cant-fill_zps68cda0c1.jpg

    MY PROBLEM BEING THAT AFTER A CROP I CANT GET THE FOOTAGE TO REFILL the composition (easy on after affects not so easy on Premiere)>.

    After the crop Ive selected scale to fit wont fill the view port (also tried to use the square crop icon instead of the left and rights).

    So my question is: “After a crop how do you get your footage to refill the composition proportionally?”

    Any insight welcome?
    David

    I’m certainly no master, but it looks like Premiere DID “scale to frame size” but it just scaled it up to fill the height of your frame, not width.

    Did you keep the same resolution/ratio when you cropped your footage? If you didn’t, that might explain why your footage doesn’t “fit” in the frame anymore. Your frame is one size and your footage is another.

    You could always go under the “Motion” setting in the effects tab (just above your crop setting) and scale the footage up? You’ll just take a quality hit for it but it might still be useable.

    Hi!
    Probably, your photo/video proportions is not the same as the composition you are working at. So, you can either do some of those solutions:
    1. Change composition settings to the size of your photo/video. You can go on the up tab, on ‘Project’ > ‘Project settings’
    2. Clicking on the image, you activate the manual selection to change its sie (make sure you use the arrow tool). Then, by clicking one of the corners resize it. If you want to keep the right proportion of the photo, you should press ‘alt’ key I think (or another one near XD), then it will become even bigger than your project size, but will keep its proportions.
    3.If not, just resize manually to the sides, but your photo will have wrong proprtions.
    Hope it helps 🙂
