Where YouTube Shorts covers your video

Shorts overlays the title, channel name, and subscribe button on the bottom ~300px of a 1080×1920 video.

The engagement rail (like, dislike, comment, share) covers the right edge from mid-frame down.

Keep burned-in captions in the middle band — the bottom sixth is covered on every Short.

Keep faces, captions, and CTAs inside the uncovered middle band.
