Letterboxing Preset for Adobe Premiere Pro by Chung Dha

In this video I am showing you how to use the free Letterboxing Preset for Adobe Premiere Pro to add those cinematic black bars, which can be used on any 16:9 video resolutions from 720, 1080 to 4k. As Premiere Pro CC2017 have removed the Title Template screen to load templates, saving these presets will make it easier to keep the letterboxing inside of Premiere without needing to load an external title template.

Preset includes ratios of:
2.35:1 Widescreen Cinema
2.40:1 Widescreen Cinema
2.414:1 Silver Ratio
2.55:1 Cinescope 55
2.76:1 Ultra Panavision 70
21:9 Ultrawide Monitors
1.85:1 US Widescreen
2:1 RED Univisum
4:1 Polyvision

Chung my man! Adobe needs to hire you and just pay you to make all future presets, you keep releasing gold!

[RecordLifeMedia]

Thank you, just tried out the presets, it works as shown! :) I'm using it on old reliable - Adobe Premiere CS6. One question, how can you change the colors of the matte? I tried using the color matte to red to test it out but the matte is still black. Thanks.

Hi, for some reason the letterbox is a color that is slightly lighter than black. It looks gray. How can I fix that?

I tried to use the color matte instead, but even if I change the color matte to white, the bars are still black.

Hello, I went to your link and turn off all AD blocker, still can't get the page to load the download button. Also tried to use Safari and still gives me the same result. (my safari doesn't have any AD blocker).

I got these into Premier Pro but they are all reverse...the black is the middle of the screen and the top and bottom of the screen is my video. Any idea?? Thanks

Can we see white bars, that would be cool...
