A couple of weeks ago Canva held an event to announce a bunch features that were going to be added over the coming months. One of those features is now available in the form of a background remover for video clips. Just like you can use Canva to remove image backgrounds you can now use Canva to remove the background from your video clips.
By using Canva’s background remover and video editor you can now create green screen videos even if you don’t have an actual green screen to record in front of. Now you can simply record a video clip, upload it to your Canva account, and then use the built-in editor to remove the video’s background. Once you’ve replaced your video’s background you can replace it with any stock image available in Canva or any image that you own and upload to your Canva account.

Applications for Education
As someone who spent years teaching world geography classes, one of my favorite uses of green screens is to have students create “on location” video reports about places they’ve researched. Canva’s new video editing options can make that process easier than ever before.
