What Makes Filmora's Smart Cutout Stand Out?
Filmora's Smart Cutout combines adaptive AI detection with precise manual controls, so you can quickly isolate people, objects, or backgrounds and fine-tune the areas that need extra attention.
Cut Out Anything From a Video
Use Smart Brush to quickly select people, pets, objects, or specific areas in your video. Filmora adapts its detection to your brush strokes, helping you focus on smaller areas without accidentally selecting nearby elements.
Fine-Tune Every Frame
Adjust frame by frame, refine edges, control feathering, tweak transparency, and use Invert Mask to switch between the subject and background. For smaller details or tricky areas, manually refine the cutout with the brush or eraser to keep or remove exactly what you need.
Add Stylish Outlines to Make Subjects Pop
After isolating your subject, you can apply glowing, feathered, or textured outlines to people, products, or pets — making them "pop" from the background with extra depth and motion. Powered by advanced motion tracking and edge stabilization algorithms, the outline stays perfectly aligned even when the camera moves or the subject turns
Create Stunning Visuals
After cutting out the object from a video, replace backgrounds, add effects, or layer multiple elements. Turn ordinary videos into something extraordinary.
