Videos featuring a solid background work best with the green screen feature Once the clip has fully uploaded, you'll be able to automatically remove the background. When you're ready to get started, open the Kapwing Studio and upload the video you want to green screen. The background can be any color, as long as it doesn't contain any major variations in tone or hue. The Green Screen effect works best with videos that include a single person standing in front of a solid background like a wall. Kapwing's Green Screen effect – or more accurately, ChromaKey, since it can work with any near-solid color – is still in Beta, but it gives you full functionality over the way you want to erase and replace the background of any video.

In this tutorial, we'll show you how to make a green screen video for free inside of a web browser on your iPhone, Android, PC, or tablet even if you don't have a green screen.

It's now possible to create green screen style videos for free online with almost any browser using Kapwing's Studio Editor. These solutions both require creators to have a mobile phone or powerful PC at their disposal, though. We've seen some great examples of digital greens in apps like Zoom and TikTok that can remove the background behind a person. We love the green screen and don't think it's going away anytime soon, but software that automatically removes the background from video is rapidly becoming more accessible.

They can be as simple as a piece of a cloth hung in a Twitch streamer's bedroom or as elaborate as a 20-foot wall on a Hollywood sound stage. This simple screen teleports actors and performers to distant lands and other worlds at almost no cost whatsoever.

The green screen is a timeless piece of movie making hardware that creators and artists have relied on since the 1930s.
