Social media video maker for Reels, TikTok and stories
Ask for a video and pick its shape in Configuration: each shape the model makes is labelled with where it is used, such as 9:16 for Reels, TikTok and Shorts. When a clip is right, Generate for social media, in its menu, makes it again at the platform sizes you pick, at exactly their size, with words, logos and faces kept clear of the spots where Reels and TikTok put their own buttons and captions.

Social media video maker, step by step
Pick the shape
Ask for a video, then open Shape in Configuration: each shape the model makes is labelled with where it is used. Choose 9:16 for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, or square or landscape for feeds and YouTube.
Describe the clip
Say what it promotes and what should happen. The video shows what you describe and adds nothing of its own, so put the point in the opening seconds yourself.
Remake it for social media
Open the video's menu and choose Generate for social media to make it again at exactly 1080 × 1920, with words and logo inside the safe area, then download it and upload it with your caption.
Vertical, full screen, ready to upload
Short-form video is watched upright on a phone. Choose the 9:16 shape for Reels, TikTok and stories, and Generate for social media brings a finished clip to exactly 1080 × 1920, so there is nothing to crop or reframe before you post.
Square and landscape too
Not every post is a Reel. Choose 16:9 for YouTube, Facebook and X, or with Kling 1:1 for feed posts. Gemini Omni has no square.
Make any video for social media
Open the menu on a video you have made and choose Generate for social media. Pick one size or several and it is made again at each, at exactly that size, from its own prompt.
A safe zone for vertical video
Vertical video apps cover parts of the screen with their own interface: the account name, the caption, the music line and the buttons. Generate for social media keeps words, logos and faces 8% from the sides, 14% from the top and 20% from the bottom, where most of those controls sit.
Your video, to the platforms' rules
Generate for social media sets the size, the safe area and the platforms' content rules, and nothing else: no added text, captions or calls to action. The video shows what you describe, at the length you choose.
A set of videos in one plan
Ask for several - "three vertical videos, one per product" - and they arrive as Vertical video items in a plan, each with a caption. Attach product photos and each video can be made from the pictures it needs.

What size should a Reel or TikTok video be?
1080 × 1920 pixels, a vertical 9:16. Choose the 9:16 shape, labelled Reels, TikTok and Shorts, and Generate for social media makes a finished video again at exactly that size.
Why is the bottom safe area bigger?
The bottom of a Reel or TikTok holds the caption, the account name, the music line and buttons. Keeping words and logos 20% from the bottom stops them disappearing under all that.
Can my logo appear in the video?
Yes. When you make a video from pictures with your brand added, it gets a generated opening frame and an end card with your real logo in the centre.
