Videos should be cropped or rendered as a square and converted to .mp4 format with H.264 video codec and MP3 audio codec for maximum compatibility with Legitimate's user experience.
If your video editing tool or rendering software supports custom resolutions, please use 1080x1080 or 2160x2160 pixels.
Widescreen and vertical videos are supported but may not look the best in Legitimate's user interface
We recommend capturing your videos in 4K resolution. If you do not have equipment that can record in 4K, 1080p is acceptable as well.
Legitimate uses a rotating table to capture the 360-degree video shown in many of Legitimate's curated products. The item is recorded spinning slowly against a solid background. We use mannequins for clothing and stands for paintings or sculptures to showcase the item in its intended setting.
We recommend square videos for maximum compatibility but most smartphones and professional cameras capture widescreen videos (16:9 aspect ratio) by default. These will need to be cropped so only the center portion of the video will be shown.
Select MP4 in the Format dropdown and check Web Optimized
For square videos, please select Custom in the Resolution Limit dropdown and check Optimal Size and Allow Upscaling.
Please select Custom for Cropping
Make sure H.264 (x264) is selected in the Video Encoder
If you want to include the audio track, make sure the Codec is set to MP3.
If you do not wish to include an audio track or want to remove the current audio, select None under the Track column.
