Hello there,

I was wondering. I've made a composition which is 1580 x 1580 but I'd like to shrink it, and everything inside it, down to 1080 x 1080. Is that possible? And if it is does anyone know how to do it?

Thanks

Nest your 1580 x 1580 Comp into a 1080 x 1080 Comp and choose Layer > Transform > Fit to Comp. Export using Adobe Media Encoder using H264 Match Source - High Bitrate (or whatever preset you usually use).

What are you trying to create? A video for IGTV, or a still frame to post as a photo?

IGTV doesn't accept 1080x1080 square footage. See https://help.instagram.com/1038071743007909

To export a cropped still frame, it's much easier to just save it as-is and crop in Photoshop.

If it's for the Instagram mobile app where the limit is 3 second to 60 seconds, 1080x1080 is fine.

Instagram's new long-form video sharing service (IGTV) is a new service with different delivery specs.
