How to remove the background from a video

Open a video of a person and Mastershot finds them in every frame, on your device. Choose what goes behind them: a blur, a color, a picture, or a green screen. Or save the person on their own, transparent, as a WebM, as PNG frames, or as a GIF. There's no watermark and no limit on length.

  1. Step 1

    Choose a video
    The person is found in every frame on your device.

  2. Step 2

    Choose the background
    A blur, a color, a picture, or transparent.

  3. Step 3

    Download the video
    Save it as an MP4, WebM, PNG frames, or a GIF.

What to expect

Supported inputs
Videos this browser can read, with a person in them. For a new background picture, PNG, JPEG, or WebP.
What happens
A segmentation model marks the person in each frame, and the edges are cleaned against the full picture so hair and shoulders follow their real outline. With a new background the video is saved as an MP4 with its sound. A transparent WebM keeps the sound too; PNG frames and GIFs are pictures only.
Limits
It finds people, not objects, pets, or products. A busy background or a person far from the camera can leave rough edges, so check the preview. Transparent WebM plays in Chrome, Firefox, OBS, and CapCut on a computer; Safari and Final Cut show it on black, so use PNG frames for editors.

Questions

Yes, with no watermark, no sign-up, and no limit on length. It runs in your browser, so the video is never uploaded.

Yes. Choose Transparent and save a WebM with an alpha channel for web pages, OBS, and CapCut, PNG frames in a ZIP for Premiere, After Effects, and DaVinci Resolve, or a GIF for a short clip.

Unscreen has shut down. This does the same job for people in a video, in your browser, with no upload and no price per minute.

No. The model is trained on people, so it keeps people and removes everything else.
