Change clip orientation before adding it to a sequence

Hello!

 

New kid here.

 

So, I want to chage the orientation of some videos from landscape to portrait beffore adding them to a sequence and changing the sequence orientation through Effect Control panel. That last option is the only one I founded here. 

There is a simple way of clicking in a bunch of selected videos and transform them, rotating them 90º, for example?

 

Thanks a lot if someone could help.

Ann's got the answer: the Transform effect, drag it onto a selected group of clips in the Project panel bin.

 

And if you apply it to one clip, then select Rotate, set to 90*, and save as a named Preset, you can then drag that preset onto a group of selected clips.

Nice! Got it. 

 

Now the source clip is rotated 90º, it seems to be cropped. It's like a portrait video inside a 1920 x 1080 frame. So, now  it's large size is 1080? So I lost the pixels if I want to use that clip in a vertical sequence (1080 x 1920)?

Use the transform effect as a source clip effect.

I could not find an effect that rotate the clip/source video or change it's orientation.

Transform effect in the Effects pallet.
