Auto-reframe: turning 16:9 into 9:16 without decapitating people
The feature that saves repurposing — when it works. Tested the trackers.
Opus Clip reframe wins:
— Keeps two speakers in frame, splits screen smartly
— Tracks fast movement without lag
CapCut auto-reframe wins:
— Free, decent on single-subject talking heads
— Fast, no upload
Premiere Auto Reframe wins:
— Keyframe-editable when AI guesses wrong
— Best for complex multi-subject scenes
The failure mode they share: anything with 3+ moving subjects gets choppy crops. Price: CapCut free, Opus $15/mo, Premiere $22.99/mo.
Verdict: CapCut's free reframe is enough for single-subject clips; jump to Opus for two-person podcasts. Skip Premiere's unless you need to hand-fix every crop. Always eyeball the result — auto-reframe lies.
Not for: native-vertical shooters. You never need this.
