Place captions behind a visible person without pretending every clip can produce the same mask quality.

Layer captions behind the subject when the footage supports it

Prepare a behind-person caption effect in CakeCut, understand its media limits, and compare the preview with the exported result.

Try behind-subject captions

Behind-subject captions need a usable foreground mask. Results depend on the browser, codec, lighting, subject separation, motion, and the source file.

CakeCut prepares the effect from the real footage and keeps unsupported cases honest. Inspect the moving edges around hair, hands, and fast motion before export.

  1. 01

    Use clear subject separation

    A visible person against a distinct background gives the mask more useful evidence.

  2. 02

    Prepare and inspect

    Watch the outline through motion, not only on one frame.

  3. 03

    Choose a simpler layer when needed

    If the mask breaks up, move the caption in front or use another style.
