João’s commitment to fostering a collaborative environment and offering accessible, authentic tools has positioned Cromatic as a valuable resource for filmmakers around the world. João Homem Film & Media Industry Expert Expert Answer Yes, cropping a video can result in quality loss. It's because when you crop, you're essentially cutting out a part of the frame and zooming in on the remaining portion. This reduces the overall resolution of your video because you're working with fewer pixels than the original video. If you crop your video into a smaller frame and then try to display the video at the same size as the original, the image can look pixelated or less sharp. To minimize quality loss, avoid cropping too much unless it's necessary for the visual impact. If you do need to crop, try to start with the highest resolution footage possible so that even after cropping, the resolution remains adequate for your project. Thanks! We're glad this was helpful.

- Question Is there a way to crop the actual output video without the black borders? Community Answer Yes. Under the Motion drop down, there is a Scale and Position option which you can use to scale the video clip up to fit the frame. Keep in mind though, you will likely lose some clarity if you keep it the same resolution. Thanks! We're glad this was helpful. Thank you for your feedback.
