Reframe wide footage into vertical output without giving up manual control.
Carmic combines automatic speaker-aware layouts with manual crop tools so your team can move quickly without getting locked into a bad framing decision.
Why it matters
Short-form framing breaks fast when the layout cannot follow the scene
Podcasts, interviews, and creator videos need different layout behavior across single-speaker shots, two-speaker scenes, and wider compositions.
- Track a single speaker for cleaner vertical focus
- Switch to split-screen when two people share the frame
- Keep manual crop overrides available for edge cases

Layout preview
Source frame and vertical output side by side
Compare the original shot with the selected vertical layout while crop controls remain close enough for quick correction.
Source footage with two people visible
Vertical split-screen or tracked result
Crop or layout panel visible beside the preview
Auto tracking
Use automatic layout decisions to keep the most relevant speaker in frame without hand-animating crops.
- Single-speaker emphasis
- Scene-aware movement
- Cleaner first pass for editors
Split-screen support
Two-speaker footage can shift into a more readable format that preserves both sides of the conversation.
- Better podcast clips
- Cleaner interview layouts
- More legible dialogue moments
Manual overrides
When a creative decision needs a human touch, crop and layout tools are still available in the editor.
- Manual crop modal
- Per-shot layout refinement
- No need to accept every auto decision
Auto reframe is only valuable when manual control is still one click away
That balance is what this page should sell: fast AI layout decisions plus the controls needed to fix the moments that matter.
