Using the Video Editor
Colour grade, apply filters, add text overlays, trim clips, and export — without requiring background removal.
Opening a video in the editor
You can open a video in the editor two ways:
- After background removal: When your video finishes processing in the Video Background Remover, click "Open in Editor" to continue with colour grading and effects applied on top of the removed background.
- Direct edit (no BG removal required): Go to /video-editor, drop any MP4, WebM, or MOV file, and start editing immediately.
What you can do in the editor
| Feature | Controls |
|---|---|
| Filter presets | 10 one-click cinematic presets |
| Colour grade | Brightness, contrast, saturation, temperature, tint |
| Blur & vignette | Full-frame blur slider, radial vignette overlay |
| Fade in/out | 0–5s smooth black fade at start or end |
| Text overlays | Font, size, colour, opacity, position (x/y %), time range |
| Timeline trim | Drag in/out points; scrub to any frame |

Exporting
- Click Export in the editor toolbar
- Choose format: WebM (VP9, best browser compatibility) or MP4 (H.264, wider device support)
- Choose resolution: Original, 1080p, 720p, or 480p
- Choose frame rate: 30, 24, or 15 fps
- Toggle audio inclusion
- Click Start export — the video renders in your browser and downloads automatically
Export time depends on video length and resolution. A 30-second 1080p clip takes roughly 1–3 minutes.
Text overlays
- Click Add text in the toolbar
- Type your text and set font, size, and colour
- Drag the text to position it on the canvas
- Set start/end time so the text only appears during a specific range
- Add multiple overlays — each has its own settings and timeline range
