Software Tool for Videoproduction Optimisation

Main Article Content

Abstract

The paper proposes software mechanisms aimed at enhancing video production processes for the authors of artistic video materials. We propose a mechanism for creating animated three-dimensional shooting plans (storyboards) using augmented reality to position and animate the movement of actors. In order to overcome the limitations of the iOS operating system related to access to sensors, we developed a mechanism for separately capturing audio and video streams from device sensors for recording and their subsequent synchronization by timestamps for saving to device memory. Computer vision technologies are used to ensure compliance with the rules of compositional construction and image quality analysis. The paper also presents mechanisms for working with the script, including text processing algorithms for displaying subtitles on the screen, and speech recognition algorithms for comparing speech recognition of actors with the text of the script.
