Abstract

Silver is an authoring tool that allows novice users to edit digital video. A variety of AI techniques provide high-level metadata from the audio signal and video, including shot boundaries and a time-synchronized transcript. Silver uses this metadata to provide multiple, synchronized views of the content, including transcript, tree outline and hierarchical timeline views. These interface components are used to organize and edit the source material. The user can drag and drop representative frames or directly cut and paste in any view, including the transcript. Our work now focuses on supporting intelligent selection when there is a disparity between audio and video boundaries.
