Abstract

This paper presents an approach to post-processing casually captured videos to improve apparent camera movement. Re-cinematography transforms each frame of a video such that the video better follows cinematic conventions. The approach breaks videos into shorter segments. For segments of the source video where the camera is relatively static, re-cinematography uses image stabilization to make the result look locked-down. For segments with camera motions, camera paths are keyframed automatically and interpolated with matrix logarithms to give velocity-profiled movements that appear intentional and directed. The approach automatically balances the tradeoff between motion smoothness and distortion to the original imagery. Results from our prototype show improvements to poor quality home videos.
