Customize your clip layout for vertical video
Choose from pre-made layouts or build your own. Position gameplay and facecam exactly where you want them.
Custom Layouts
From 16:9 stream to 9:16 short-form - your way
Your stream runs in 16:9, but TikTok, Reels, and Shorts need 9:16. StreamLadder's Clip Editor gives you pre-made layouts that arrange your gameplay and facecam in vertical format - or lets you build a completely custom layout from scratch.
Stack your facecam above gameplay, go side-by-side, use picture-in-picture, or fill the entire frame with gameplay. Drag, resize, and crop each layer until it looks exactly how you want. Your custom layouts save to your account so you can reuse them on every future clip.
A good layout keeps viewers focused on the action and your reactions at the same time. The right split between gameplay and facecam depends on your content - experiment with different arrangements to see what gets the best retention.
Once your layout is set, add animated captions and text stickers to complete the look. Use the Content Publisher to post your finished clips to every platform at once.
