Chroma Key
This effect allows you to do Chroma Keying (also known as Green Screen or Blue Screen) in Kdenlive. Chroma keying is where you remove backgrounds of a similar colour. This effect is a very basic. For a more complication alpha manipulation/background removal effect, use Colour Selection
For black backgrounds, the screen transition is slightly more effective.
Here are some video tutorials on how to use chroma key.
