It sounds like you are editing your iPhone movie on your Mac and as the aspect ratios of portrait versus landscape are different you are getting black boarders.
Note QuickTime allows you to rotate a movie but not to crop it.
How to use QuickTime Player - Apple Support
Edit
QuickTime Player offers several options for editing your movie, including trim, split, cut/copy/paste/delete, and flip/rotate.
For that you may want to use iMovie.
iMovie '11: Rotate video or photos
To rotate a photo or video:
-
In the Project browser, click a photo or video clip in your project, and then press the C key or click the Crop button.
For video clips, a crop (or rotation) applies to the entire clip, even if you select just a part of the clip to modify.
-
Click the right or left rotation buttons at the top of the viewer.
Each click turns the image 90 degrees. With the new orientation, the image might no longer fit the project’s aspect ratio, and black bars might appear at the top and bottom of the image (letterbox) or on its left and right sides (pillarbox).
-
To crop the image so that it fits the aspect ratio, click Crop in the upper-left corner of the viewer.
Adjust the green cropping rectangle by dragging its corners or edges to show the part of the image you want. If you’re working with a photo, click Allow Black if you want to be able to keep black borders in the image when you crop.
If you want the entire image to show, click Fit instead. Some black borders might appear on the sides or on the top and bottom of the image.
Take care
