Spill
The green glow is the hard part
Removing the green itself is easy. What gives a green screen away is the green light that bounces back onto the person: a green rim around the hair, a tint on the shoulders, green in the gaps between fingers.
After we cut the person out, we look at the edge pixels and pull the green out of them, replacing it with an estimate of the hair or skin color underneath. It reduces the green cast; it can't recover color the green light fully covered. The Remove green spill slider on the result screen controls how strong that is, and the preview updates as you drag it.
Turn it up for blond or light hair, which picks up the most green. Turn it down if the person is wearing something that is actually green, so their clothes keep their color.
To remove blue screen from video, nothing changes. We detect which one you used from the first frames; if we get it wrong, tap It's blue on the result screen.
2× zoom on the hair. Check the edge on white: any leftover green shows up immediately.
Why not chroma key
Why not just use a free chroma key online?
Chroma key in your editor is free and works well on a perfectly lit, perfectly flat screen. So does an online chroma key video tool: under the hood it is the same color pick. Most home and small-studio screens aren't that even. These are the cases where a green screen key usually falls short.
Uneven lighting
One light, a shadow in the corner, a bright spot behind the head. A simple or quickly tuned key clears one range of green; the darker or brighter parts stay behind as blotches. We find the person, not a color, so uneven light on the screen doesn't leave blotches behind.
Wrinkles and seams
A fabric screen has folds and the seams between panels. Each shows up as a slightly different green that needs its own adjustment. Here they don't matter.
Green on the edges
Chroma key removes the screen but leaves the green light on hair and shoulders, so you add a separate spill suppressor and tune it. Spill removal is built in here, with one slider.
Screen too small
When the person moves past the edge of the screen, chroma key has nothing to key and the room shows through. We remove the room too.
Hair against the screen
Fine, light-colored hair gets eaten when you push the key hard enough to clear the screen. Because we don't key by color, more of the strands survive; how many depends on the light and how fast the hair moves, so check the free 5 seconds in HD.
No tuning
No similarity, smoothness or clip black/white to adjust per clip. Upload, check the preview, download.
If your screen is evenly lit and your editor's keyer already gives you a clean edge, you don't need a green screen background remover like this one — use the free tool.

Output
What you can download
Transparent video. The person with no background at all, in the format your editor expects: ProRes 4444 for Premiere, DaVinci and After Effects, HEVC with alpha for Final Cut and iPhone, WebM for OBS and the web. See transparent video for which one to pick.
A new background. Drop the person onto a color, gradient, photo or your own image and download an MP4. The video background changer lets you move and resize them too.
A clean green MP4. Useful if your phone editor doesn't read transparency: we put the person on an even, perfectly flat green, so the chroma key in CapCut gives a clean result on the first try.
Every download keeps the original audio and has no watermark. Downloads are up to 1080p.
No green screen in your shot? You don't need this page: the video background remover does the same job on a normal room, and it's the same upload.

FAQ
Green screen questions
Is this a green screen remover for video or photos?
Video. It's a green screen remover video editors use on whole clips: it follows the person frame by frame and keeps the sound. For a single photo, a still-image tool is quicker.
Does it work with blue screens?
Yes, it works as a blue screen remover too. We detect green or blue automatically from the first frames. If the guess is wrong, switch it with one tap on the result screen.
My green screen is badly lit. Will it still work?
Usually, yes — we look for the person rather than one exact shade of green, so shadows, hot spots and wrinkles matter much less than with chroma key. The free first 5 seconds in HD show you the real result before you pay.
The person is wearing green. What happens?
Their clothes are kept, because we cut out the person, not the color. Lower the spill slider so the green on the clothes isn't toned down.
Can I get the result back on green for CapCut?
Yes. Choose Green screen MP4 on the result screen. The green is perfectly flat, so CapCut's Chroma key clears it in one step.
Does it keep the audio?
Yes, every download keeps the original sound.
Is my video uploaded for the preview?
No. The preview runs in your browser. Only the part you download is uploaded, or the whole file if your browser can't cut it; only that part is processed.
Do I need a green screen at all?
No. The same tool works on any background — a bedroom, an office, a street. The video background remover is the general version of this page.
How to remove green screen from video in Premiere, DaVinci or CapCut?
Every editor has its own green screen key: Ultra Key in Premiere Pro, Delta Keyer or 3D Keyer in DaVinci Resolve, Keylight in After Effects, and Remove BG → Chroma key in CapCut. Put the clip on a track above your background, add the keyer, pick the green with the eyedropper, then raise the strength (Tolerance, Screen Gain or Intensity, depending on the app) until the screen is gone. If shadows or a green rim stay behind, run the clip through this page instead and import the transparent file.
Is this the same as chroma key?
No. Chroma key removes a range of colors. This tool finds the person and removes the background, then cleans the green off the edges. The free preview is designed for footage with people. If you only need a plain chroma key remover for logos, graphics or effects shot on green with no person in them, your editor's built-in key is usually quicker.
