Recommending connection points for video shots

Abstract RECOMMENDING CONNECTION POINTS FOR VIDEO SHOTS Disclosed is a method (200), implemented on an image capture device (826), of editing a set of video shots (400) to generate an output video, the method comprising the steps of displaying (310) in temporal order a pair of representations (410, 414) of a corresponding pair of the video shots, determining (210), for the pair of representations (410, 414), using video analysis of at least some of the video shots, a plurality of recommended connection points each comprising an in-point for one of the pair of shots and an associated out-point for the other one of the pair of the shots, displaying (310), in a vicinity of the pair of representations (410, 414), a plurality of icons pairs (430;440, 432;442), each pair depicting one of the recommended connection points, receiving (330) an input selecting one of the recommended connection points for the pair of shots, and generating (240) the output video using the selected connection point. 927008 / 2442473v4 151209 -2/8 Input Start sequence of 202 shots 210 Determine multiple connection points for consecutive pair of shots Recommended candidate See Fig. 3 connection209 220 203f points Select one connection point per pair of shots Selected connection 205 204 points 230 User examines and changes connection points Accepted 206 connection IF 240 207 points -- - Generate output video with selected connection points 208 video299 End Fig. 2 927008 / 2442955vl 151209
