# Effects Examples

> Request bodies for visual effects on video elements.

Effects are set via the `effects` array on `video` elements. Each entry has a `type` and an optional `intensity` (0–100, defaults to `50`). Only fields that differ from their defaults are shown.

<Warning>
  Effects are only supported on `video` elements — not on `image`. The API returns `422` if you add `effects` to an image element.
</Warning>

## Single effect

```json theme={null}
{
  "width": 1920,
  "height": 1080,
  "elements": [
    {
      "type": "video",
      "source_url": "https://cdn.example.com/clip.mp4",
      "effects": [{ "type": "vintage", "intensity": 70 }]
    }
  ]
}
```

## Chroma key (green screen)

Remove a green background. Tune the HSL bounds via `chroma_settings` (defaults shown below target a standard green screen).

```json theme={null}
{
  "width": 1920,
  "height": 1080,
  "elements": [
    {
      "type": "video",
      "source_url": "https://cdn.example.com/greenscreen.mp4",
      "effects": [
        {
          "type": "chroma_key",
          "intensity": 100,
          "chroma_settings": {
            "hue_min": 60,
            "hue_max": 180,
            "sat_min": 0.3,
            "sat_max": 1.0,
            "lum_min": 0.2,
            "lum_max": 0.9
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```

## Multiple effects

Stack effects on the same element.

```json theme={null}
{
  "width": 1920,
  "height": 1080,
  "elements": [
    {
      "type": "video",
      "source_url": "https://cdn.example.com/clip.mp4",
      "effects": [
        { "type": "add_grain", "intensity": 40 },
        { "type": "cc_halftone", "intensity": 50 }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
```
