Black Bars on Videos

I've Got It
Hey guys I do 3 different games videos 2 of them are from iPad and 1 is a Mac, so the games that from iPad the videos after editing they have black bars, but the mac which is minecraft does't have, but my last video has because i Played and recorded in full screen which is better for me and easier to play while recording, and let me play better. My question is do people hate to see gaming videos with Black Bars ? if yes how can i FIX it please, I Don't want Haters

Thanks for reading please help !!
 
I see the problem. Typically, when you have those black bars on the side, it's because the video footage itself is NOT 16:9 aspect ratio. Meaning that it's something along the lines of 4:3.

With the Ipad games, you can't really fix this without distorting the gameplay footage. It'll just look weird and nobody will enjoy it as much. What you can do to fix this is design a background that you personally can use to fill in those blanks.

As for Minecraft, when you go into full screen you're changing the default resolution of the game from something close to 16:9 to something more your monitor resolution size (Which I'm going to assume is NOT 16:9 otherwise you wouldn't have this problem).

So you're making it so the footage doesn't naturally fill in the blanks. I would recommend recording on the default size, or changing your monitor resolution to more accurately fit the 16:9 aspect ratio. You can also crop the footage, but that may lead to some stuff getting cut out. So, meh.

Hope this helped? :P
