Scenes, layers and the canvas
In closed beta · Not yet on sale
What is on screen, and when: scenes, layouts, layers and the canvas they are drawn on. Rooster is in closed beta and not on sale yet; these guides describe the app its testers are using now.
Change aspect ratio: 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1
Turn a landscape video into a portrait one for Reels, Shorts and TikTok, or a square one for feed posts, and choose whether the picture fits or fills.
Add B-roll over your video
Cover part of your main recording with other footage or a still in Rooster: over words you select in the script, across a scene, or on the timeline.
Add text and titles
Put a title, subtitle or line of text on the canvas in Rooster, choose its font, size and colour, and set how long it stays on screen. Shapes and images too.
Divide a video into scenes
Split a Rooster video into scenes with the / key, then give each scene its own layout and a transition into it. Merge scenes, and move a boundary.
