Blur your videos

Blur parts of your video on a computer.

Custom blurring

Click the Blurring effects tab > Custom blurring > Edit to blur objects or people as they move in your video. Click and drag a box over whatever you want to blur. The tool will automatically blur the object as it moves. You can also:

• Move the blurred box to a different place: Click and drag within the box.
• Resize the blurred area: Click and drag any corner of the box to blur a bigger or smaller area.
• Change when the blurring happens: Click and drag the ends of the timeline to set when the blurring begins and ends.
• Prevent the blurred area from moving at all: Click "Lock" in the timeline to make sure the blurred area always stays in the same place.
• Blur multiple areas: Click and drag new boxes over the parts you want to blur.
