[thomasc99597876]

How do I get rid of the black bars? Then, how do I get the video clips on the right to match the left's size?

Try dropping your clip on an empty timeline.

You can drop your clip on the "New Item" button (also), in the project panel lower right, to create a sequence with the size of your clips.
