The last time we checked, 9:16 was the go-to aspect ratio for vertical videos. But this is the internet, and things change fast. Now, there’s a new vertical aspect ratio in town: 2:3, and it’s the perfect fit for Pinterest.
Once our team saw how great video content looked in 2:3, we knew we had to offer the aspect ratio to our everyday editors. So, here it is – Introducing Vertical 2:3. Let’s jump into a quick tutorial, so you can start creating pin-perfect videos (did we mention they look great on Facebook too?).
