# OpenArt's new VFX tool masks and replaces regions in video

By Steven Van · 2026-06-06

The tool matches AI-generated replacements to a scene's lighting and physics rather than editing single frames.

OpenArt now applies effects to footage, not just stills. [OpenArt](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/openart>)'s new VFX tool masks a region of a video and replaces it with AI-generated content matched to the scene's lighting and physics, turning prompt-based edits into what the vendor calls real visual effects.

The [announcement](<https://x.com/i/status/2061568784238776393>) shows the masking applied directly to video footage rather than single frames.
