make a video optimized for youtube
 

I want to make a video optimized for youtube. I want to make a video about animals for youtube but the thing is that it appears on the sides as frames. I don't know if there's any option that the video can watch without the frames that I don't think looks good.
Thanks

Well, it would be helpful to know what video editing software you are using. If you are getting black bars on the outside of the video it's because your video aspect ratio isn't matching the aspect ratio of the container you put the video in.

Google "aspect ratio" for the video editor you are using.

I'm using windows movie maker.I think I can see it all right now. With an image software I have the scale images of 1280x720 and now the video if I'm looking at it well, the black stripes don't appear.

Good luck!

Thanks for your question! To optimize my YouTube video about animals, I plan to record and edit it in a widescreen format (16:9 aspect ratio). This way, the video will fit perfectly on YouTube without any distracting frames or black bars on the sides. By following this approach, I aim to create a visually appealing viewing experience for my audience. Hope that impresses you!

Black bars appear on the sides of your video when the aspect ratio of your video doesn't match the aspect ratio of YouTube. YouTube uses a 16:9 aspect ratio, which means the width of the video is 16 units and the height is 9 units. If your video has a different aspect ratio, such as 4:3 or 9:16, YouTube will add black bars to fill the empty space.

To remove black bars from your video, you need to crop or resize your video to fit the 16:9 aspect ratio before uploading it to YouTube. There are different ways to do this depending on the software or tool you use.

i want to know about it too. Actually i have a studio www.manafarhang.com
and i want to know about making optimized video for youtube.

I finally fixed the frame issue on my YouTube animal video! 🎉 I changed my project settings to 16:9 (1920x1080) before exporting, and the black side bars disappeared. The video now fills the entire screen and looks much more professional. Small setting, huge difference!
