Smart Cutout
While the AI Portrait tool in Filmora for Mobile works wonders for portraits or similar video subjects and effortlessly removes backgrounds, the mobile editing app’s Smart Cutout feature takes it up a notch. It functions similarly to AI Portrait but can be applied to objects besides portraits.
With it, you can manually select any object from a video or a photo and remove its background or keep the background intact and remove the selected object itself. All it takes is a bit of manual brushing and AI magic.
