It's not a big deal if you record your video in the wrong direction. Instead of starting again, rotate your video using the rotation settings to free yourself from stress and save a lot of time.

Part1. Reason to rotate a video

There are undoubtedly many videos on your hard drive that are in portrait format rather than landscape mode and vice versa. When we need to capture something fast, we may accidentally start recording in the wrong mode and then flip our device when we discover our error.

Many gadgets remain in the mode in which they began recording, leaving us with a video that is unwatchable unless we wish to break our neck. It's also possible that when we video anything from an unusual perspective, the gadget decides for us that it isn't what we wanted.

It's also possible that you're working on an artistic video project and want to experiment with spinning your videos in different directions.

For duplication, copy and paste the video on the timeline. The duplication of the layer will show. Move the layer downwards, so that duplicated layer appears on the backside of the actual layer.
