Guide to Removing Objects or People From Videos

How It Works

You can remove objects from a video, like passers-by, cars, wires or clutter, by describing them in plain words. The AI rebuilds the area behind them from the rest of the scene.

The maximum length of the clip you can attach as a reference, and so edit, varies by model:

There are two ways to do it:

• From the full video view: for any video in your gallery, including uploads.
• From the Create video prompt box: for a clip you upload or pick from your gallery.

In both, you can attach more references to the same edit with the Reference button, like a photo or an audio file.

Option 1. Remove from Full Video View

This works for any video you have already generated or uploaded:

1. Log into getimg.ai and click a video in your gallery (All media, Uploads, a folder or the Create video gallery). It opens in full view, with the clip already attached to the prompt box below.
2. Describe the edit in the prompt box.
3. Click the arrow in the prompt box. The edited video appears in your gallery as a new video.

Examples:

• remove the people walking in the background
• remove the power lines over the lake, keep everything else the same.

Option 2. Remove Using the Create Video Prompt Box

Use this when you want to start from Create video:

1. Open Create video in the sidebar, under the Video group.
2. Click the model button in the bottom left of the prompt box and choose one of the available models that support videos as references.
3. Click the Reference button in the prompt box and press Upload file or Select existing to add your clip.
4. Describe the edit in the prompt box.
5. Click the arrow in the prompt box to generate.

Examples:

• remove the pigeons from the square
• remove the scaffolding from the building and show the plain stone wall behind it.
