We built a free Aspect Ratio Calculator!

At Pixelhaze Academy, we are passionate about creating high-quality training and education content.

As part of our content creation process, we rely on the powerful video editor, Descript, to bring our vision to life. However, we faced a common challenge that many content creators encounter – capturing specific screen portions while maintaining the correct aspect ratio. Determined to find a solution, we developed our aspect ratio calculator. In this blog post, we'll share our experience and provide you with a tool to streamline your video production workflows.

The Challenge: Recording Screens with Varying Aspect Ratios

As we dove into creating screen recordings and tutorials, we quickly realized that screen sizes, resolutions, and aspect ratios varied significantly across devices. This presented a dilemma when it came to capturing specific parts of the screen without losing any vital on-screen details. We needed to resize the application window to fit the desired resolution while preserving the aspect ratio. Manual calculations and guesswork were time-consuming and often led to frustration.

The Solution: Our Custom Aspect Ratio Calculator

To address this challenge head-on, we decided to create our own aspect ratio calculator. We wanted a tool that would simplify the process of determining the correct resolution based on the desired aspect ratio. With our calculator, you can easily input the desired aspect ratio and instantly obtain the optimal resolution. It eliminates the need for manual calculations, saving you time and ensuring that your captured content is precise and visually appealing.
