Crop video swift

Question

I am recording a video in a square UIView but when I export the video is full screen 1080x1920 now I am wondering how I can reduce the video from being full screen to being

        outputSize = videoSize

    if outputSize.width == 0 || outputSize.height == 0 {
        outputSize = defaultSize

Call this way:

    let avssets = AVAsset(url: VideoURL)
    self.cropFrame(videoAsset: avssets, animation: true)
