Add the Auto Reframe effect to a clip

Last updated on Dec 14, 2023

Before you begin

Create a project and assemble media in a sequence. Complete all your edits. Adding the Auto Reframe effect is your last edit before exporting a clip.

Fine-tune the Auto Reframe effect by choosing a suitable Motion Tracking option from the Effect Controls panel. While applying the effect, Premiere Pro generates motion keyframes that follow the action in your content. You can choose one of the following options: Slower Motion, Default, or Faster Motion.
- Slower Motion Appropriate for when there is very little or no camera motion (such as talking head interviews). When this control is used, results are almost static and the clip has very few keyframes.
- Default Appropriate for most content. Here, the Auto Reframe effect follows the action, however the results may not be great if the action is very fast.
- Faster Motion Appropriate for when there is a lot of motion in the footage and you want the Auto-Reframe effect to follow the action (such as in action sports or skateboarding videos). Here, Auto Reframe ensures the moving object is always in the frame, and adds a lot of keyframes to your clip.
(Optional) You can Overwrite Generated Path.
(Optional) You can also fine-tune the following options: Adjust Position, Reframe Offset, Reframe Scale, Reframe Rotation.
