Overlay for YouTube Shorts
A quick overlay for you tou use when creating Shorts for YouTube or other platforms.
I was working on some vertical videos for YouTube shorts and realize that I was not taking into account the UI elements from the YouTube shorts viewer. So I made a little tool that can you can use to avoud running into the same issues like I did.
You can use it to avoid getting your captions behind the YouTube icons and also to avoid things being cropped out of your frame.
