Appreciate it! I've been using 3:4 and adding blurred borders to top and bottom so it's fine when it crops for the feed, but I love that they automatically add the blurred background now so it looks nice as a 3:4 or 4:5 AR video
In all sincereness, i ve been struggling with this and META is of no help. Why is this information such a secret? How did you find these tips out? Great job of explaining. I just don’t understand why Meta does not provide this info.
Meta has lots of articles. Like thousands. So if you do some digging you will find it but not plain and simple. So I started by reading that then just made ads myself and got the experience, now Im here sharing it!
Hi Sydney, useful video thank you. Is the 1200x1500 recommendation still current? As screens get bigger/better do these size recommendations need to increase? Does 1200x1500 still meet the needs of all mobile screen sizes or is bigger now required?
Hey, thanks for the much informative video!. i do want to make 4 x 5 videos but i just wonder whether i should fit the video to story size or feed size? like should i fill the whole screen in the editing part or leave black columms on the side?
if the video is made in 4x5, and all the content fits IN 1x1, you do not need to make any other adjustments aka black border... it will show up great :)
@@VertexMarketingAgency thanks for the answer. i still dont get why i should keep things on a 1:1 ratio if the 4:5 is optimized for feeds. and will it be cropped on stories? what about a 9:16 ratio?
Informative video thanks, What if I have all the different sized videos and images to match the various placments should I run one or multiple ads with names like Horizontal, vertical, 4x5, 1to1?
I will be really thankful if you reply to this question; I am new to ads world, I just wanna know does the picture ad and video ads have difference in pricing while placing ads?? For example $20 adspent in Image Reaches 15 K People $20 adspent in Videos Reaches 10 K People Or $10 adspent in Image Reaches 10 K People $20 adspent in Videos Reaches 10 K People Sorry i'm not good in explaining what exactly I meant, but i believe you will understand and help me in replying
Overall, the better the ad, the more people it will reach for a lower cost. So, either situation could be true. Typically though, a video will have a lower CPM than images since this is what people prefer to watch, but not all the time (like if it's a bad video) if the image is just an overall better ad, then it will reach more people and cost less.
fantastic info i have been using 1536 x 1920 pixels which is the same ratio but higher res i guess? so i guess we have to optimise for eithg desktop or mobile?
Very insightful! Thanks. So given this, my question is - why bother with images at all? Why not just upload every creative as a video so its optimized across all placements?
@@VertexMarketingAgency Thanks for the reply! Just to be clear when I say upload every creative as a video, what I mean is doing what you demonstrated in the video and adding a simple Canva sticker to a photo. In other words, not really a video creative, but using the hack you demonstrated in order to optimize static images for size so that all of my creatives are 1200x1500. What do you think?
I like Canva for photo editing, I use Adobe Premiere for videos! I used Canva simply to demonstrate how to turn a regular photo into a video by adding some animation so that it can fix the 4:5 (1200x1500px) format!
If I want to make a thumbnail to acommpany the video on facebook, should I keep the ratio for the thumbnail the same (I am using the 1200x1500 aspect ratio)
I would recommend saving the trouble of making a custom thumbnail & just choose an automatically generated one once in ads manager. A thumbnail will not affect your results enough to spend the time making it!
Hello¡ what do you recommend me to upload a video to facebook feed with a ratio of 1:1 or 4:5? If I upload it from the computer or is it better to upload from the cell phone. Greetings
Hi, i tried uploading 1200*1500 but fb showed a warning sign for my video and a message the size is not supported. I then uploaded a 1:1 and the warning was gone. Can you please help. Should i go ahead with 1200:1500?
Video or image? With an image, make sure all content fits within 1:1 if using 4:5. With video, it will fit all placements, but to be sure you could also make sure all content fits within 1:1 so even if you crop it for a placement that does not support 4:5, all the content is still viewable.
