Basically what I do is apply a mask on the top and bottom of the frame of 12.5% each. I am losing 25% of the frame by doing this but I am shooting and framing with this in mind always so it's not really a loss to me.

Thanks so much for the clarification! I totally agree, it makes it look more filmic and epic.
