AI video background removal tool that removes backgrounds from videos automatically without a green screen.
What is Unscreen?
Remove Video Backgrounds Without a Green Screen
Unscreen is a specialized AI tool that automatically removes backgrounds from video footage without requiring a green screen, special lighting, or any manual masking work. Developed by the makers of Remove.bg, Unscreen applies the same deep learning approach that made background removal effortless for photos to the significantly more complex challenge of video content.
How Unscreen Works
Unscreen's AI processes video frame by frame, using semantic segmentation models to identify foreground subjects and separate them from backgrounds with temporal consistency — ensuring smooth, flicker-free results across motion. The tool handles challenging scenarios including moving hair, partially transparent objects, and complex motion patterns that would require hours of manual rotoscoping to handle otherwise.
- Automatic background removal from any video footage
- Temporal consistency for smooth frame-to-frame transitions
- GIF and video format support
- High-quality edge detection including hair and fine details
- Direct output as transparent WebM or GIF
For Creators and Marketers
Content creators, video marketers, and visual effects artists use Unscreen to quickly composite subjects onto new backgrounds without a green screen setup. It is particularly popular for short-form content creation where setting up a proper green screen would be impractical. The API enables integration into larger video production workflows.
