Rotating a Video

[A. Akin]

Just purchased Adobe Premier Elements 2022 and as my first project I need to rotate a clip shot by an iPhone in portrait mode, however video is supposed to be landscape. All I have to do is rotate it 90 degrees. This is something I used to easily do with Premier Elements 2018, however now it rotates the video just fine but maintains the canvas in portrait mode.

What changed, how can I rotate both the video and the clip?

Start a new project. On the New Project screen, select the 1920x1080 landscape project settings and, before you click OK, check the option to force these project settings. This will keep the program from trying to match the setting of your portrait video.

hi, I have just done exactly what you suggested and the 4 clips that are vertical are still vertical.

What might I have done wrong?
I need to turn this seminar into a video, please help

Thanks

What do you mean when you say that the 4 clips are vertical? 

What are your project sequence settings? Are they for a landscape or portrait project?

Did you rotate them?
