What is multi-format video rendering?
Producing several aspect-ratio outputs from one approved editorial plan.
One request can select one to three unique aspects. Punchy adds smooth drift and emphasis moves to eligible shots in 16:9, 1:1 and 9:16, including safe single-subject full-frame shots. Ambiguous, unsafe or multi-face windows retain steady framing. Every output keeps its plan and available motion evidence.
Controls and evidence

Useful automation leaves something a person can inspect. Anjin keeps the edit connected to its brief, source media and output settings.
MULTI-FORMAT RENDERINGVERIFIABLE OUTPUT
- aspects
- One to three unique values from 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9.
- visual_plan
- Aspect-specific framing associated with a plan version.
- crop_mode
- Supported portrait framing behaviour for the selected output.
- version
- The exact editorial and visual plan behind each file.
Why it matters
More control, less timeline work.
Treat framing separately
Plan each aspect around its own available picture area.
Simplify delivery
Receive coordinated files and sidecars from one render workflow.
Fit and boundaries
Use the capability where it genuinely helps.
Anjin is strongest on speech-led recorded material where the editorial job can be described clearly and every selected moment needs to remain verifiable. It supports human judgement with searchable evidence, a reviewable plan and structured outputs.
A strong fit
Recorded knowledge with a story inside it
Interviews, podcasts, webinars, discussions and archive programmes benefit when the useful material is distributed across a long recording or several selected sessions.
Keep elsewhere
Final craft and image-led montage
Detailed colour, sound design, motion graphics and wordless visual storytelling remain finishing tasks for a professional editor and their preferred creative tools.
Evaluation checklist
What should you verify before adopting multi-format rendering?
aspects
Confirm that the workflow exposes this clearly: one to three unique values from 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9.
visual_plan
Confirm that the workflow exposes this clearly: aspect-specific framing associated with a plan version.
crop_mode
Confirm that the workflow exposes this clearly: supported portrait framing behaviour for the selected output.
version
Confirm that the workflow exposes this clearly: the exact editorial and visual plan behind each file.

Questions about multi-format rendering
- Which aspect ratios can Anjin render?
- The supported output aspects are 9:16 portrait, 1:1 square and 16:9 widescreen.
- Can one request produce all three formats?
- Yes. A render request can include up to three unique supported aspects.
- Do all formats use the same crop?
- No. Each aspect can use an associated visual plan while retaining the same editorial cut version.
- What does Punchy add to the picture?
- Punchy uses smooth drift, emphasis moves and pullbacks where subject tracking and headroom are safe. It supports all three aspects and does not guarantee movement on every shot. Natural and Balanced keep their established treatment. Completed outputs are unchanged until you render again.
- Does each aspect count as a separate composition?
- Each exported aspect uses export minutes, with a one-minute minimum per aspect: a 30-second cut exported as 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 uses three export minutes. Source minutes are counted once, when footage is ingested, and AI planning and revisions are included.
