I'm editing a vertical video and have greyed out blocks at the top and bottom of my video, over the top of my clips. Not sure what i've done, but unable to get rid of them and they show up when I export the video

    No thats the issue, I’ve just realised. I coppied the adjustment layers from the original horizontal edit so those ares top and bottom are just showing the original log footage 🤦.

    Thank you

    What do those two adjustment layers contain?

    Are they of the same dimension as the sequence settings.

    clips on the timeline dont look vertical as in your first screenshot.
