CONVERSION OF TEXT TO DYNAMIC VIDEO

The approach described herein for transforming text to video starts with one or more users writing a screenplay, which includes text with optional annotations and metadata describing a video, and sending it to a software system wherein the following five primary steps may be taken to generate and/or distribute a video: edit, transform, build, render, and distribute. These processes can happen in different orders at different times to enable the creation or display of a video. All five steps are not always required to render a video and at times, processes may be combined or their sub-processes expanded into their own separate process.
