Free Green Screen Video Editor with Chroma Key

Yes. ToolDeck Green Screen Video Editor is free, adds no watermark on export, needs no account and never uploads your files. You get chroma key, background replacement, picture-in-picture, text overlays and MP4 export up to 4K at 60 fps. There are no credits, daily caps or length limits. The only limits come from your device.

No. Open the page, drop your green screen clip and background, enable chroma key and export. There is no login, no email wall and no trial period.

No. Chroma key, compositing and encoding happen inside your browser tab. You can verify by opening the Network tab in your browser developer tools while you edit and export — you will only see the editor code and the AI model download if you use captions.

Place your green screen clip on the overlay track, add the background image or video below it on the main track, then select the overlay clip, open the Style tab, enable chroma key and click the green area with the eyedropper. Slide tolerance until the green is fully gone, then nudge edge softness for clean hair and shoulders.

Green is standard because most cameras and encoders keep green detail better, and most skin tones differ from green more than from blue. Use blue if your subject is wearing green, or if the scene is full of plants and grass. Blue is also common for darker complexions because it separates from skin tones well. In ToolDeck, both are picked with the same eyedropper.

Raise tolerance a little and turn on spill suppression. If the key still eats into the subject, fix it at the source next time: light the screen separately from the subject, and keep them at least one meter apart. Evenly lit footage keys cleanly in seconds.

Enable spill suppression in the Style tab. This desaturates green tones left on hair, shoulders and hands. Combine it with edge softness to smooth the cut, and light your subject a little brighter than the screen to reduce bounce.

Yes. Pick the blue colour with the eyedropper and adjust tolerance the same way. Avoid blue clothing and accessories in front of a blue screen, just as you would avoid green in front of a green screen.

Yes. Add a JPG, PNG or WebP on the main track below the keyed clip. The subject floats over the image with full opacity and sharp edges.

Yes. Drop an MP4 or WebM on the main track. The background plays at its own rate and the keyed subject stays frame-accurate above it. This is great for animated explainers and dynamic presentations.

Yes, if you export to a format that supports alpha. In practice most platforms require an opaque MP4, so a solid colour, a blurred copy of the subject shot or a matching graphic background is the more useful option for social delivery.

Yes. Place one keyed clip on the overlay track and add others on additional overlay layers. This is how you build co-host shots, side-by-side reactions and multi-camera virtual studios.

Yes. The text track sits above the overlay, so lower thirds, captions and call-outs stay readable over your keyed subject. Animate the entrance and snap it to a beat marker.

Yes. Add them as image overlays on the overlay track above the keyed clip, or as text-track elements. Resize and position freely.

Yes. Eight transitions are available between clips on the same track. Cross-dissolve and slide transitions work well between two keyed shots with different backgrounds.

Up to 4K at 60 fps if your device has enough memory and processing power. For social, 1080p is faster and plenty sharp. Choose GPU rendering for the fastest export.

Import MP4, WebM, MOV, MKV (if your browser can play it), JPG, PNG, WebP and GIF, plus MP3, WAV, M4A and OGG audio. Export is MP4 (H.264 with AAC audio) in Chrome and Edge. The recorder engine exports MP4 or WebM depending on the browser.

Chroma key struggles with fine hair, motion blur and soft shoulders. Lower tolerance slightly, increase edge softness, and add spill suppression. A better-lit source shot is always the real fix.

Without a GPU, encoding runs on the CPU, and 4K, 60 fps or many layers slow it down. Try 1080p, 30 fps, fewer effects, close other tabs, and use Chrome or Edge on desktop.

1 GB per imported file. Projects of a few minutes work best. Very long projects can run out of browser memory, so split them into parts.

Chrome and Edge on desktop give the best results because they support WebCodecs and WebGL for fast preview and export. Firefox works with the compatibility engine. Safari has limited support for some effects.

The editor loads on mobile, but layout and performance are built for desktop. For serious green screen editing use Chrome or Edge on a computer, then move the MP4 to your phone.

Only use backgrounds you own or are licensed to use, whether they are stock footage, images from a paid library or your own shots. Ignoring copyright can get videos blocked. This is general information, not legal advice.

ToolDeck adds no watermark and claims no rights over your exports. Whether a video is usable commercially depends on the rights to the footage, music, fonts and backgrounds inside it. Make sure you are licensed to use them.
