Abstract

Recently, there has been much development in the annotation and automatic editing of video segments. The major issue has been the re-use of segments through a number of different editing processes. However, the annotation of the story progression through video segments has not received much attention. This paper presents an intelligent tool for narrative-based annotation and editing of video segments. The annotation schema relies on a formal theory for the annotation of story structure in video segments and on a juxtaposition engine for the automatic editing. The method has been implemented in a software programme that has been employed, in the re-use perspective, for artistic applications and, in the analysis perspective, for cross-medial comparison of stories.
