Chroma Key - you might have seen this effect on TV or in movies, when actors are shot against a solid color screen that later is replaced by a different background, either footage or photo. You can create your own video with the same effect using Movavi Video Editor! This tutorial will show you how.

Nowadays, you don’t need to have your own visual effects studio if you want to make a great video with special effects. It doesn’t require expensive and complex chroma key software to replace green screen backgrounds with any other backdrops of your choice. A simple, yet powerful program for home video editing as Movavi Video Editor will do!

Simply import green screen footage to the program. Then, choose an alternative video background for your project. You can also use images as backdrops instead of footage. You don’t have to worry about the specific tone of the green screen – use the picker tool to select the particular color of the green screen backdrop that appears on your video. Combine the two (or more) video clips together using the chromakey method as described in this tutorial. Click Apply to change the background of the video. That’s it!
