What is the length of a Shootsta video?
A Shootsta video has a final edit length up to 5 minutes and is ideally made from up to 25 minutes for raw footage.
Why? At Shootsta we believe the optimal video length is short and to the point for maximum engagement.
Need a longer video? No problem. Just mention it in your brief to your editor, and your Shootsta edit team will get back to you with options.
Accepted formats and file types
The Shootsta Platform will accept all file types in the upload process, but will only playback MP4 & MOV files.
For ease of upload and download we don't recommend supply files that are larger than 5GB. We recommend transcoding files larger than 5GB prior to upload in order to reduce their filesize.
Resolution
High Definition 1920 x 1080 HD is the preferred resolution for video. This resolution will appear clear and crisp across most devices and platforms. If you require a specific lower resolution, our editors can adjust the resolution for you. If you require resolutions that are not in a 16:9 aspect ratio, our editors can also provide this for you.
If your video needs to be exported at multiple resolutions (for example, if you need to share the video across multiple different social media platforms) then you may find our Social Iteration add-on useful.
Shootsta can not edit 4K footage. 4K requires fast processors and takes a very long time to upload to the platform due to its sheer size, which can be an issue when most internet speeds are too slow to handle them. We can, however, help you transcode your footage into HD so it can be uploaded to the platform and added to your project. Get in touch via support@shootsta.com or the chat function, we'd love to help.
