iPad/iPhone iMovie transparent background overlays with Copy Subject/Cutouts ✂️

Apple introduced Copy Subject or Cutouts with iOS/iPadOS 16. These work really slick for making a watermark for your iMovie videos. You can do this on a Mac too, but it's actually easier on an iPad or iPhone.

[@AnnaVasylioglo]

is it possible to use cutaway opacity in Imovie on Iphone?

[@KurtPapke]

Sorry, no there isn't.

Been trying to figure out how to do this, and have been trying other third party apps that confuse the helm out of me and I would have to do all my editing in one, then sent the whole thing to another app… total pain. Thanks!

Is there any trick to do this with a video?

[@KurtPapke]

You can export a single frame of a video and do the same thing. If you want to remove the background of an entire video clip, you have to use Final Cut Pro.
