Auto Reframe now available in Premiere Pro (14.0)!

[caroline_edits]

Heads up, the Auto Reframe effect is available to the public! It’s easier than ever to prepare your project for multi-platform posting, without having to leave Premiere Pro! Here’s a quick walkthrough with all the info you need to get the best results out of this new feature.

Here's the breakdown.

1.  Auto Reframe is best used after you've locked down your cut, but before adding transitions to your clips! Consider it a finishing tool.
2.  Make sure you have a clear subject in the frame. Like all AI tools, Auto-Reframe performs better when it is tracking an object of high contrast.
3.  You can apply it to a single clip by finding "Auto Reframe" in the Effects panel and dragging it to the clip in your timeline.
4.  A more common use is to apply the effect to an entire sequence – when you're done editing and you're preparing the post for multiple social platforms. Sequence > Auto Reframe Sequence... 
   You can also right-click the sequence in your project panel to select "Auto Reframe Sequence..."
5.  In the dialog box that appears, rename your sequence.
6.  Choose the aspect ratio that you want your project framed within. See below for more details. 
7.  Choose whether you'd like to nest your reframed clips or not. Auto Reframe creates keyframes on your Effect Controls panel, so if you choose not to nest your clips, it will replace any keyframes that you created before applying the effect. If you do nest your clips, it will preserve your keyframes, but it will break transitions between your clips. Choose wisely! 😁

•  Horizontal 16:9 is like what you'd see on YouTube.
•  Horizontal 4:3 is similar, but it's not as wide. You'll see this aspect ratio more on Instagram posts.
•  Square 1:1 is also very common on Instagram.
•  Vertical 9:16 is great for posting stories on most social platforms.
•  Custom is up to you

It would be nice if this was possible via Adobe Media Encoder so I could export all aspect ratios at a bunch of resolutions at once, and have the transitions be applied after the reframe operation

@carolinesears. What is the best way to edit the position of keyframes once the effect is applied. Currently it says "Motion (disabled when Auto Reframe is applied). I can edit the timing etc., but not position.
