The good news is you can adjust the height of the bars at any moment, that’s why we recommend previewing the movie before exporting it to make sure that no essential element of your footage is hidden behind the rectangles. Note that some part of your video will get covered by the cinematic black bars overlay – this is an inevitable consequence of the method. Place the widescreen bars at the top and the bottom of a scene as intended.Once your cinematic bar looks the way you want, click on it using the right mouse button and select Duplicate to create an identical one.The rectangle will take the space of the entire scene, so all you need is to manually adjust its height as desired. To stretch the bar exactly to the width of the scene, in the Properties window click on the “Set the same size as the parent has” green button in the Properties window (again, illustrated below).Paint the rectangle black using the Brush color icon from the menu at the top or the Properties window Brush color menu.Using the left-side menu, add a rectangle-shaped object to the scene as illustrated below.Launch the program and import your soon-to-be-Hollywood-style movie using the Import content button on the start screen.
