3 CSS Video Effects
This collection demonstrates methods for artistic processing and integration of video on web pages using CSS. The object-fit: cover property is leveraged to create perfect responsive backgrounds, while mix-blend-mode allows masking video through text or blending it with colors. Properties like filter and mask-image enable real-time footage styling - from color correction to shaping non-standard forms - eliminating the need for video editing software. These solutions turn the simple <video> tag into a powerful design tool.
