Quip

Horizontal to vertical video

Shot in 16:9 but need 9:16? Quip converts horizontal video to vertical, keeping the speaker centered in frame — smoothly, with no jitter and no throwaway frames. It clips the strong moments and adds captions along the way.

How it works

01

Upload the horizontal source

Any 16:9 video: interview, podcast, webinar, or meeting recording.

02

Quip reframes to 9:16

The frame follows the speaker along a fixed grid, with no shaking. The result is a clean vertical.

03

Take the finished clips

Vertical clips with captions and a hook, ready to publish.

Why Quip

Flicker-free reframe

The frame is locked to the video's grid — no jumping crop box and no shimmer on transitions.

The speaker stays in frame

Speaker tracking, not a static center crop. The face never drifts off the edge.

More than a crop

You also get moment clipping, captions, and a reason each clip is worth posting.

FAQ

Will the speaker drift out of frame?
No. The frame follows the speaker and keeps them centered in the vertical. The movement is smooth, with no jerks.
Will there be flicker on transitions?
No. The reframe is built on a frame-grid invariant, so the crop doesn't twitch or shimmer.
What if there are several people on camera?
Quip follows the active speaker. You can nudge the frame position by hand in the editor.
