Written by David Salib

✨ Overview

Minvo includes powerful advanced framing and video effects tools that help you create smooth, professional-looking videos with minimal effort. You can quickly match framing between clips, apply dynamic effects, and enhance your videos with B-Roll to create more engaging content for your audience.


🎯 Match Framing Between Video Segments

πŸ“Œ When to Use

Use Match Framing when:

  • You want consistent framing across multiple clips.

  • You pan or zoom in one segment and want the next clip to match seamlessly.

  • You want smoother transitions without manually repositioning every clip.

πŸͺœ Steps

  1. Open your video in the Timeline Editor.

  2. Click on the video segment you want to adjust.

  3. Use one of the available Match Framing options:

    • Match Next β†’ Copies the framing from the next segment.

    • Match Previous β†’ Copies the framing from the previous segment.

    • Match Next (+2) β†’ Matches the framing from two segments ahead.

    • Match Previous (-2) β†’ Matches the framing from two segments behind.

  4. Preview your video to ensure the transition looks natural.

πŸ’‘ Why It Works

Match Framing automatically applies the same camera position and zoom level between clips, creating smooth visual continuity without manual adjustments.
