Using Vertical Aspect Ratios In A Horizontal Project - Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera 6K Installation

Editing Vertical Clips on a Timeline
When recording vertical video, clips are tagged as vertical in their metadata. DaVinci Resolve
will recognize the tag and display your video correctly in an edit timeline. This is also true for
other editing applications that support the Blackmagic RAW SDK, for example Adobe Premiere
and Avid Media Composer.

Using Vertical Aspect Ratios in a Horizontal Project

If your project is using a horizontal format, for example 1920x1080 HD, clips tagged
as vertical will be scaled to fit. This is important when using vertical clips in a news or
television broadcast. You can fill the sides automatically using solid colors or even using
DaVinci's 'blanking fill' effect. For more information refer to the 'Resolve FX overview'
section in the DaVinci Resolve manual available at the Blackmagic Design support center at

Using Frame Guides
Frame guides are overlay markers that can be enabled on
the camera's LCD. These are helpful to make sure important
details stay in shot and items you don't want are kept out.
They are also effective for when anticipating overlays that
you might want to use in your presentation. For example,
graphics, titles, icons and visual effects.
Grids
Grids are another helpful overlay for composing shots and
balancing the frame for a vertical format.
For more information about frame guides, grids, plus
other helpful overlays and on screen features, refer to the
'touchscreen features' section.
