Video-to-Video — restyle existing footage: turn real video into animation, pixel art, or 3D.
Inpainting — remove or replace objects in video: erase an unwanted person from a frame, swap the background, add a missing element.
Green Screen — background removal and replacement without a chroma key, powered by AI segmentation.
Motion Tracking — track object movement and attach text, graphics, or effects to it.
Frame Interpolation — increase video FPS by generating intermediate frames.
