Blurring distracting background elements is a simple yet powerful way to enhance visual focus and elevate the overall quality of your video. With AVCLabs Video Blur AI, this process becomes effortless and efficient, even for beginners.
Part 1: 3 Steps to Blur Distracting Background Elements in Creative Edits
AVCLabs Video Blur AI offers 3 specialized tools to tackle diverse background distractions with precision. You are free to add fixed mosaic to blur, or apply motion tracking to blur. Also, one click to blur the entire video background is offered to get your subject focused.
- Fixed Blurring: Add mask to blur or remove static objects from your videos
- Object Tracking: Automatically track and blur/remove moving objects for seamless video editing
- Full-Scene Blur: Apply a one-click blur to the entire background/foreground to highlight others
Step 1: Import Your Creative Video Footage
Launch AVCLabs Video Blur AI and import your video file by clicking to import or dragging and dropping the footage into the software.
Step 2: Mark the Distracting Background Elements
Play your video and pause at a frame with distractions. Use two specialized tools to target static or moving elements, or even combine them for multi-task editing.
Tool 1: Fixed Blur for Static Elements
For stationary distractions (e.g., messy shelves, static signage), use the Fixed Blur tool. Apply a rectangle or ellipse mask to cover the area, then choose "Blur" (soften) or "Erase" (remove entirely) for static backgrounds.
Tool 2: Object Tracking for Moving Elements
For dynamic distractions (e.g., passing crowds, moving cars), use Object Tracking. Click "Object Tracking" to highlight the moving object, then pick "Blur" or "Erase" effect. The AI will track its movement across frames automatically.
Tool 3: Background Blur for Entire Scenes
For full-background blurring (or reverse to blur foreground), use the "Background Blur" mode. Apply one-click blur to the entire background, with the option to invert and focus on the background by blurring the foreground instead.
Step 3: Adjust Blur Settings and Export
Choose from blur modes like Gaussian (soft natural), Mosaic (bold pixelated), or Custom Overlays (stickers/images) to match your style. Click "Export Video", select the video and audio format. Finally, click the "Apply" button to process your clean, focused video in minutes.
