Video segmentation is a widely used technique that enables movie directors and video content creators to separate the foreground of a scene from the background, and treat them as two different visual layers. The “video segmentation” tool, as they call it (well, everyone does) is rolling out to YouTube Stories on mobile in a limited fashion starting now. The new segmentation technology allows creators to replace and modify the background, effortlessly increasing videos’ production value without specialized equipment. Removing or replacing a background is a great tool to have in your toolbox and this makes it quite easy.
