Use this interactive demo to learn how to apply chroma key effects in Clipchamp.

‍

‍

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to use the chroma key effect in Clipchamp to remove colored backgrounds from a clip.

‍

  1. Click Import media and upload an image or video with a solid colored background.
  2. Drag the clip onto the timeline.
  3. Select the clip then open the Effects tab on the right panel. 
  4. Look for the Green screen effect then click it to enable the chroma key effect.
  5. On the Screen color drop down menu, choose the color of the background you want to adjust or remove.
  6. Adjust the Screen threshold sliders to clean up the edges on the object.
  7. The selected background color is now removed using the chroma key.

‍

Note: Solid colored background is not necessary but makes it easier and cleaner for edits.

📌 Why this matters

Chroma keying lets you place yourself or objects into any environment without expensive studio setups or location shoots. You can create professional-looking content from your home office, appear to present from exotic locations, or seamlessly blend multiple video sources together.

Beyond the obvious background replacement, this technique opens up creative storytelling possibilities like having the same person appear multiple times in one scene, creating split-screen effects, or building layered compositions that would be impossible to capture in a single take.
