12 Days of Techmas
Day 11
Background Removal Tools
On the eleventh day of Techmas, Ms. D shared ways to remove backgrounds from images and videos!
This is one of those questions that I get all the time. "How do I remove the background from this image?" There are so many times that we may need to remove the background from an image we took or a video so we can add it to a presentation.
Want to take your image and make it a custom sticker for a presentation? These tools can allow you to do that! Want to create a video but instead of being in your classroom, you are presenting from the top of a mountain, at the beach, or even in the body system you are studying. Students and Teachers can use these for all kinds of projects.

Adobe Express has a background remover tool in its free version. Once you remove the background you can download or edit the image.
I really like this one because you can easily add a new background, turn it into a flyer, etc.

Unscreen allows you to have a green screen effect without the green screen. Remove the background of videos so you can add them to whatever background you would like. Think the way a Zoom Background works. This is a free website.
