# Video effects and enhancements


Cloudinary's visual effects and enhancements are a great way to easily change the way your videos look and play within your site or application. For example, you can change the shape of your videos, blur them, apply quality improvements, make color adjustments, change the speed of playback, loop the video, or add a progress bar, and much more. You can also apply multiple effects to a video by applying each effect as a separate [chained transformation](video_manipulation_and_delivery#chained_transformations).

This guide is divided into separate topics for [video color effects](video_color_effects), [artistic effects](video_artistic_effects), [playback effects](video_playback_effects), [reshaping and rotating](video_reshaping_and_rotating), and [video previews and posters](video_previews_and_posters).

Besides the examples on this page, there are many more effects available and you can find a full list of them, including examples, by checking out our [URL transformation reference](transformation_reference).

Here are some examples of different effects and enhancements:
