How to make a Green Screen video in Jupitrr

Step-by-step guide

1. 1

   Choose Green screen when you upload

   In Set up your video, set Format to Green screen, then select Start Editing. Add B-roll Automatically stays on, because the B-roll becomes your background.

   You can also turn it on later: select Formats and choose Green screen. If the video has no B-roll yet (for example, it was uploaded with automatic B-roll off), add some from B-rolls; otherwise the background stays a blurred version of your original room.

   

2. 2

   Wait for the cutout

   After your video is processed, Jupitrr cuts you out of each frame. The Green screen panel shows Cutting you out of the background; it usually takes about a minute.

   When it is ready, Jupitrr creates one cutout part covering the whole video and stretches the B-roll so there is always something behind you.

   

3. 3

   Review the cutout parts

   Select Formats to open the Green screen panel. Each card is a cutout part with its time range; the same parts appear as Cutout bars on the timeline.

   Where there is no cutout part, the original video plays.

   

4. 4

   Choose a layout for each part

   On each part, choose Full, Lower half or Corner.

   Full keeps you where and how you were filmed. Lower half shrinks you to 60% at the bottom centre, and Corner shrinks you to 55% at the bottom right, so more of the background shows.

5. 5

   Fine-tune your position

   Select the sliders icon on a part (Fine-tune position, size and rotation) and adjust Left / right, Up / down, Size and Rotation.

   Reset puts you back where you were filmed.

   

6. 6

   Split, add or delete parts

   Move the playhead, then select Split at playhead to divide a part, or Add cutout at playhead in a gap without one.

   Drag or trim Cutout bars on the timeline to retime parts; each part is at least 1 second long and parts can't overlap. To delete a part, use Delete cutout on its card, or select the bar and press Delete (Undo appears in a toast).

   Parts change with a hard cut, so you can switch from Full to Corner at a new point in your script.

   

7. 7

   Change the background

   The background is your B-roll. Open B-rolls, click a clip and choose Search another one to replace it, or add clips on new words.

   Clips set to Full (the default with Green screen) sit behind you. Clips set to Overlay or Card float in front of you. Web image searches return portrait images while Green screen is on.

   Every replace, add and display option is covered in How to add and edit B-roll.

8. 8

   Edit the hook and subtitles

   Green screen keeps the hook at the top of the frame for the whole video, with subtitles underneath. Edit them in Text and Subtitles as usual.

9. 9

   Switch or remove the format

   Select Change Format. Choose another format and confirm with Switch format, or choose Remove format.

   Your cutout parts are kept, so switching back restores them. Your B-roll, subtitles, hook and music stay in the project.

Limits and requirements

• The cutout works on videos up to 10 minutes. Longer videos show This video is too long for a cutout (10 minutes max). For YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels, keep the video under 3 minutes.
• Not available for landscape videos or on AppSumo plans.
• This is an AI cutout, not a chroma key: there are no spill or tolerance controls.
• Turning on Green screen in the editor doesn't add B-roll. Videos uploaded without B-roll need clips added from B-rolls.
