Photo overlay

"Picture in video" is a popular artistic technique for signing a project with your unique watermark or adding some extra information. It can also be used as a part of post-shooting editing: overlaying visuals look much more elaborate and creative than a regular sequence of slides.

With the help of Clideo’s Video Editor, you can overlay photos online, without purchasing and installing costly and memory-draining software. Clideo Pro subscription allows you to save your project in better quality, use several editing tools simultaneously, and have only your watermark on the visual. But even free and unregistered users can avail of our service.

The Video Editor is the best-suited tool for complex "key-turn" editing, as it allows you to speed the video up or slow it down, change the color scheme and brightness, aspect ratio and crop option, and many other settings.
