As a newbie to DaVinci Resolve, this was very simple for me to follow, thanks

[@JasonYadlovski]

You're welcome! Thank you for watching!

[@McQueenSF]

I'm such a noob too

[@notakai_exe]

agreed very good video!

[@iDzx]

Man thank you so much I used to layer my footage and blur the background one but keep the front one same, the filter you showed had a very nice effects. Thank you man pls keep up❤️

[@JasonYadlovski]

Awesome, that effect will help save you lots of time. 😁👍

[@treefittyforall]

Thanks, bro. This was very useful. I knew there was a way to do it, I just didn't know how.

[@JasonYadlovski]

You got it, glad I could help!

[@GinSoakedBrain]

Darn kids these days! Making me learn how to edit in vertical format! Thanks for the video!

[@JasonYadlovski]

Haha, I hear ya!

[@TaeglicheNarzisst]

Good Content. Thank you so much for the fun!

[@flufflesss]

What I do is, to bring the 16:9 to 1:1 and put it in the top half of the screen. Then use blank in fill with different top and bottom cropping, as well as no side crop. Blur the background and use the white color above it a little, will give it a nice milk glassy look. TikTok will put the chat and likes above the bottom half of the screen anyway.

[@JasonYadlovski]

Awesome, that's great. Thank you for sharing your method!

[@flufflesss]

@@JasonYadlovski Glad I can help.

[@RolandoAGarcia]

thank you!!! this helped alot

[@DIYNate]

Jay - once again, truly appreciative of your great content. Went from thinking I just wanted to confirm how to make a Short / adjust the aspect ratio to learning something I had no idea about (the Blank Fill feature) in Resolve. I have also made a ton of use of a pointer you gave me in the past on using an Adjustment Clip - something I was completely lost without. So thanks a ton for continuing to help my video production quality grow - you rock, sir! (and love the plug for Milwaukee power tools - I am a Ryobi man myself - the little brother of Milwaukee - haha!). - DIYNate

[@JasonYadlovski]

Hey! Glad I could make you aware of some new things! That happens to me often in Resolve, like wow, I didn't know you could do that!. 😜 Ryobi has great stuff too! Guess I got Milwaukee cause it's red....like my canons, haha! But really I just thought they were great tools based on my research. 😁

[@DerCrawlerVomUrAnus]

Man, I wish I had found this video before making something that was supposed to be a short and afterwards set the resolution to 1080 x 1920 and wondered why it was just a tiny video with giant black borders, well, I know now. Thanks for the great explanation!

[@JasonYadlovski]

[@JasonYadlovski]

Thanks for watching!

[@vigneshsrao]

@jason.. I don’t know if you purposefully didn’t mention the option while creating a new timeline under Mismatched Resolution one can set it to “scale entire image with crop” .. this’ll automatically resize the image to fit the entire screen without the black bars 🤷🏽‍♂️… Thanks for all the tutorials.. ✌🏽

[@JasonYadlovski]

Thanks man! That's another great way to do it too. Always lots of ways to do things in Resolve. It's nice to have options. 😜 Thanks for checking out the video!

[@Just_B0red]

As someone who started doing small edits out of boredom this is pretty nice, thanks ;)

[@JasonYadlovski]

You're welcome!

[@AshtonLamontPhotoVideo]

Thanks very much. Why did it take me so long to realise that the easiest way to do a KZbin Short is just to turn a dSLR to portrait aspect! And so much easier to just create a new Timeline rather than starting from scratch with a new Project Library > Project Settings. Other than that, if it is an existing 1080p landscape aspect clip, rather than use a background I use Transform > Zoom etc to fill the screen and I use Clip Attributes > Super Scale 2X to get really nice 4K. Great tutorial as always.

[@JasonYadlovski]

Yes! Turning a DSLR is what I do sometimes. 😜

[@ZarinaJani]

[@OldCouchGamer]

This does not work for me. DId as you showed and also rendering in 1080x1920, but when i try to upload it on my smartphone to YT it isnt accepted as Shorts Video.

[@JasonYadlovski]

Strange, are you sure the dimensions are correct and that it’s not accidentally outputting a normal size video? I had that issue the other day, I rendered and didn’t realize it wasn’t a vertical only video. If the video is vertical in the correct ratio and you use the #shorts in the title, it should work. 🤔

this was actually really helpful, whenever I looked up youtube official guides it was all about dumb live footage but this helps me change recorded screen footage into shorts, thanks!

[@yuletide]

Very helpful -- what about the upload? I tried uploading a few on desktop and tagging with #shorts but not sure they are really getting the same boost as native ones uploaded on mobile

[@JasonYadlovski]

I don’t know about some kinds of shorts getting boost over others, I imagine that upload method has nothing to do with that.

[@Vali-S]

This video is very useful,but how to you set a thumbnail to the video? Because when you upload to YT from is just picks a random frame from the video regardless if i set poster frame in Davinci resolve.

[@JasonYadlovski]

One way to do it is if you upload directly to youtube from DaVinci Resolve, then you can set the thumbnail in the render settings.

[@Belsnickel_Isnt_Real]

Thank you so much! Very helpful.

[@JasonYadlovski]

You’re welcome!

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

Here's my question: Once you've created the video via DaVinci, how do you actually upload it to KZbin AS a Short? Because when you upload videos to KZbin via your PC the "Create Short" option isn't available to you. I've tried #shorts in the title but that doesn't actually put the video into the public Shorts pool in KZbin.

[@JasonYadlovski]

If you add #shorts to the title and in the description, it will add it as a short. The video also needs to be in a portrait orientation. It's always worked that way for me.

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

@@JasonYadlovski So, #shorts in title and description and video in 16:9 and it should work?

[@JasonYadlovski]

As long as the video is in a vertical format, it will work.

[@OlderThanAverageGamer]

@@JasonYadlovski Much obliged
