Widescreen

This filter “letterboxes” an object by masking the object at its top and bottom to simulate
a variety of video and film aspect ratios. Because this filter is masking the image, what
appears behind the object is either the background color of the project or the object that
is beneath the masked object in the composite. You can also add an additional border
to the masked image and customize the color and size of the border.

This filter causes rasterization in 3D groups.
