[Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention]

[0021] The imaging unit 217 is an imaging sensor composed of a CCD or CMOS element, etc., which converts an optical image into an electrical signal.

[0022] [Functional Configuration of Video Editing Devices] Figure 3 is a diagram showing the functional configuration of the video editing device 101 and video recording device 102 included in the information processing system of this embodiment, as well as the connections between each functional configuration.

[0023] The video editing device 101 includes a video file editing unit 301, a reshoot instruction detection unit 306, a transmission / reception control unit 307, and a display input control unit 308.

[0024] The transmission / reception control unit 307 receives video data transmitted from the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203 and stores the received video data as received video data 302.

[0025] The video file editing unit 301 obtains the operations of the editor, who is the user of the video editing device 101, via the display input unit 205, and generates edited video data 303 and editing information data 304 based on the received video data 302. Further details will be described later.

[0026] The reshoot instruction detection unit 306, if the editing information data 304 contains a reshoot instruction, extracts the information related to the reshoot and saves the extracted data as reshoot instruction data 305. Details will be described later. The transmission / reception control unit 307 transmits the reshoot instruction data 305 to the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203.

[0027] The display input control unit 308 controls the display of screens and other content shown on the display unit such as a display in the display input unit 205.

[0028] Each functional unit of the video editing device 101 shown in Figure 3 is realized by the CPU 200 executing a predetermined program, but is not limited to this. Other hardware such as a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) or FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) may also be used to speed up calculations. Each functional unit may be realized through the cooperation of software and hardware such as dedicated ICs, or some or all of the functions may be realized by hardware alone.

[0029] [Functional Configuration of Video Recording Devices] The video recording device 102 includes a transmission / reception control unit 317, a video file management unit 311, a reshoot instruction screen generation unit 314, a display input control unit 318, and a shooting control unit 316.

[0030] The shooting control unit 316 controls the shooting performed by the shooting unit 217.

[0031] The video file management unit 311 saves the video file obtained by the shooting unit 217 as the captured video data 312.

[0032] The transmission / reception control unit 317 transmits the video file saved as captured video data 312 to the video editing device 101 via the communication unit 213. The transmission / reception control unit 317 receives the reshoot instruction data 305 transmitted from the video editing device 101 via the communication unit 213 and saves the received reshoot instruction data 305.

[0033] The reshoot instruction screen generation unit 314 generates a screen based on the reshoot instruction data 305 transmitted from the video editing device 101.

[0034] The display input control unit 318 controls the display of screens and other information shown on the display unit, such as a display, in the display input unit 215. For example, the display input control unit 318 presents a reshoot instruction to the photographer by displaying a screen based on the captured video data 312 and the reshoot instruction data 305. Further details will be described later.

[0035] Each functional unit of the video recording device 102 shown in Figure 3 is realized by the CPU 210 executing a predetermined program, but is not limited to this. Other hardware, such as a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) or FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), may also be used to speed up calculations. Each functional unit may be realized through the cooperation of software and hardware such as dedicated ICs, or some or all of the functions may be realized by hardware alone.

[0036] [Processing during shooting that does not involve reshooting] Figure 4 is a flowchart illustrating the video transmission process during video recording in the video recording device 102. Figure 4(a) is a flowchart showing the process in the video recording device 102 during shooting when it is not a reshoot.

[0037] The series of processes shown in the flowchart of Figure 4 are performed by the CPU 210 of the video recording device 102 loading the program code stored in the ROM 211 into the RAM 212 and executing it. Alternatively, some or all of the functions of the steps in Figure 4 may be implemented by hardware such as an ASIC or electronic circuit. The symbol "S" in the description of each process indicates a step in that flowchart, and the same applies to subsequent flowcharts.

[0038] In S401, the video file management unit 311 saves the video file containing the video and audio data captured by the shooting unit 217 as the captured video data 312.

[0039] In S402, the transmission / reception control unit 317 transmits the video file obtained as a result of S401 to the video editing device 101 via the communication unit 213.

[0040] Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a video file stored in the video recording device 102 as captured video data 312 in this embodiment. The video file contains binary data, which is image and sound information, and metadata, which is management data. The metadata includes items such as a video ID and a reshoot instruction ID. The value held in the video ID is a value used to identify the video file. Details about the reshoot instruction ID will be described later, but if the video file is not a video file obtained by shooting based on a reshoot instruction, the reshoot instruction ID will be empty and no value will be held, as shown in Figure 5(a).

[0041] Figure 6 is a flowchart illustrating the editing process in the video editing device 101 when it receives a video file. The series of processes shown in the flowchart of Figure 6 are performed by the CPU 200 of the video editing device 101 loading the program code stored in the ROM 201 into the RAM 202 and executing it. Some or all of the functions of the steps in Figure 6 may also be implemented in hardware such as ASICs or electronic circuits.

[0042] The flowchart in Figure 6 includes the steps for when a re-recorded video is received, which will be discussed later. However, we will first explain the processing of the video editing device 101 when a non-re-recorded video is received, using Figure 6. Details of the processing when a re-recorded video is received will be described later.

[0043] In S601, the transmission / reception control unit 307 of the video editing device 101 receives the video file transmitted from the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203 and saves the received video file as received video data 302.

[0044] In S602, the video file editing unit 301 determines whether the video file received in S601 is a video file based on a reshoot instruction.

[0045] As shown in Figure 5(b), the video file editing unit 301 determines that a video file is based on a reshoot instruction if a value is held in the reshoot instruction ID in the metadata contained in the video file received by S601. As shown in Figure 5(a), if a value is not held in the reshoot instruction ID in the metadata contained in the video file, it determines that the video file is not based on a reshoot instruction.

[0046] If the video file editing unit 301 determines that the video file received in S601 is a video file based on a reshoot instruction (S602 is YES), it performs the processing in S606 to S610. The explanation of S606 to S610 will be described later.

[0047] If the video file editing unit 301 determines that the video file received by S601 is not a video file based on a reshoot instruction (S602 is NO), it proceeds to processing S603.

[0048] In S603, the video file editing unit 301 receives user input via the display input unit 205 and generates an edited video using the received video data 302, which includes the video file received by S601, as source video. The video file editing unit 301 saves the generated edited video data as edited video data 303.

[0049] Figure 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of an edited video generated in S603. The edited video is generated by an editor using editing software to cut out parts of multiple source videos and then combining the cut-out videos. In this embodiment, the source video data is assumed to be data selected by the editor from the received video data 302. The edited video in Figure 7 is assumed to be an edited video with video ID "M100".

[0050] For example, in Figure 7, the section from "00:00 to 00:15" in the edited video is a portion created by cutting out and combining the section from "00:20 to 00:35" in the source video with video ID "M004". Similarly, the section from "00:15 to 00:25" in the edited video is a portion created by cutting out and combining the section from "00:50 to 01:00" in the source video with video ID "M003". The section from "00:25 to 00:35" in the edited video is a portion created by cutting out and combining the section from "00:10 to 00:20" in the source video with video ID "M002".

[0051] The editor determines which of the source videos stored as received video data 302 will be used to generate the edited video, and which sections of the source videos will be extracted and combined, through operations via the editor's display input unit 205. The edited video may also be generated automatically by cutting out the source videos using AI or the like. In other words, the editor's role includes including devices that automatically edit using AI or the like.

[0052] In S604, the video file editing unit 301 receives instructions for reshooting if the editor requests it.

[0053] Figure 8 shows an example of a reshoot section specification screen 800, where an editor specifies a section to be reshot in order to replace a part of the edited video. For example, an editor generates an edited video like the one in Figure 7 on the edited video generation screen (not shown) displayed on the display input unit 205 of the video editing device 101. The editor then checks the generated edited video and, upon finding a section that needs to be replaced by reshooting, presses a button to instruct reshooting included on the edited video generation screen (not shown). The reshoot section specification screen 800 in Figure 8 is, for example, the screen that appears on the display input unit 205 of the video editing device 101 when that button is pressed.

[0054] The reshoot section selection screen 800 includes a display area 801 for displaying the generated edited video, a cursor 802 for specifying the start point of the reshoot section in the edited video, and a cursor 803 for specifying the end point of the reshoot section. The reshoot section in the edited video is a portion of the edited video that the editor has determined needs to be replaced with another video through reshooting.

[0055] The editor can specify a reshoot section by moving cursors 802 and 803 to specify the reshoot section in the edited video while viewing the edited video displayed in display area 801. Alternatively, the editor may specify a reshoot section by entering the time of the reshoot section, and input fields 804 and 805 for entering the end time of the reshoot section may be included.

[0056] Furthermore, the reshoot section selection screen 800 includes an input form 806 for comments regarding the reshoot to the photographer. The editor enters comments for the photographer into the input form 806.

[0057] Buttons 807 and 808 are used to save the reshoot instruction displayed on the reshoot section selection screen 800. Button 807 is pressed to specify a different reshoot section. Button 808 is pressed to close the reshoot section selection screen 800 without specifying a different reshoot section.

[0058] In S605, the video file editing unit 301 generates editing information data 304 that holds the content of the edited video generated in S603.

[0059] Figure 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of the editing information data 304 generated in S605. The editing information data 304 is generated for each edited video. Figure 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of the editing information data 304 for an edited video whose video ID shown in Figure 7 is "M100". The editing information data 304 includes a configuration information area 901 and a reshoot instruction area 902.

[0060] The configuration information area 901 is an area that holds information indicating which source video was extracted from the source video stored as received video data 302 to generate the target edited video. For example, in the configuration information area 901 of Figure 9, in row 911 where the column "Edited video section" holds "00:00~00:15", the "Source video ID" holds "M004", and the "Source video section" holds "00:20~00:35". This indicates that, as shown in Figure 7, the section "00:00~00:15" in the edited video "M100" is the part extracted from and combined with the section "00:20~00:35" in the source video whose video ID is "M004". The same applies to the second row and subsequent rows of the configuration information area 901.

[0061] The reshoot instruction area 902 is an area that stores information on reshoot instructions entered by the editor via the reshoot section specification screen 800. Each row in the reshoot instruction area 902 stores information for each reshoot instruction. The "Reshoot Instruction ID" stores an identifier (reshoot instruction ID) that can uniquely identify the target reshoot instruction. The reshoot instruction ID shall be issued by the video file editing department 301. The "Reshoot Section in Edited Video" stores information on the reshoot section in the target edited video. The "Reshoot Instruction Comment" stores the reshoot instruction comment entered by the editor.

[0062] For example, when button 807 is pressed while the reshoot section specification screen 800, as shown in Figure 8, is displayed, the video editing device 101 issues "CM003" as the reshoot instruction ID. Then, in the reshoot instruction area 902 in Figure 9, "CM003" is stored in the "Reshoot Instruction ID" column, and "00:10~00:15", as shown in input fields 804 and 805 in Figure 8, is stored in the "Reshoot Section in Edited Video" column of the same row. Also, "Please reshoot focusing on the house on the right", which is entered in the input form 806 shown in Figure 8, is stored in the "Reshoot Instruction Comment" column of the same row. Returning to Figure 6, we continue the explanation of the flowchart.

[0063] In S611, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 determines whether or not the editor has instructed a reshoot. The reshoot instruction detection unit 306 acquires the editing information data 304 associated with the target edited video, and as shown in Figure 9, when it detects that data has been written to the reshoot instruction area 902, it determines that a reshoot has been instructed.

[0064] If the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 determines that the editor has instructed a reshoot (S611 is YES), it proceeds to S612; otherwise (S611 is NO), the flowchart in Figure 6 ends.

[0065] In S612, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 executes the process of generating reshoot instruction data 305 based on the reshoot instruction area 902 included in the editing information data 304.

[0066] In S613, the transmit / receive control unit 307 transmits the reshoot instruction data 305 generated in S612 to the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203.

[0067] Figure 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the reshoot instruction data 305 generated in S612. The reshoot instruction data 305 is transmitted to the video recording device 102 and contains information indicating the content of the reshoot instruction to the video recording device 102. Therefore, the reshoot instruction data 305 is generated so that the video recording device 102 can display the video of the section for which shooting was instructed.

[0068] Each line of the reshoot instruction data 305 holds information specific to each reshoot instruction. As shown in Figure 10, one line of data in the reshoot instruction data 305 includes the "reshoot instruction ID," the "video ID of the source video to be reshot," the "reshoot section in the source video," and the "reshoot instruction comment."

[0069] Figure 11 is a flowchart illustrating the details of the re-shooting instruction data generation process performed in S612.

[0070] S1101 to S1107 is a loop process. In S1101, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 selects the reshoot instruction ID to be processed from the reshoot instruction IDs held in the "Reshoot Instruction ID" column in the reshoot instruction area 902 of Figure 9. The reshoot instruction detection unit 306 then executes the processes of S1102 to S1106 for the reshoot instruction ID to be processed. In S1107, if the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 determines that there is a reshoot instruction ID that has not been selected as a target for processing (S1107 is NO), it returns to S1101. Then, it selects a new reshoot instruction ID to be processed from the unselected reshoot instruction IDs and repeats the processes of S1102 to S1106. In S1106, if the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 determines that all reshoot instruction IDs have been selected as targets for processing (S1107 is YES), the reshoot instruction data 305 is completed, and the flowchart in Figure 11 ends.

[0071] For example, the steps in Figure 11 will be explained assuming that "CM003" is selected as the processing target in S1101.

[0072] In S1102, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 obtains the value of the "reshoot instruction comment" associated with the reshoot instruction ID to be processed from the reshoot instruction area 902 of the editing information data 304 shown in Figure 9.

[0073] In S1103, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 obtains the value of the "reshoot section in the edited video" associated with the reshoot instruction ID of the processing target from the reshoot instruction area 902 in Figure 9. For example, as shown in Figure 9, "00:10~00:15" associated with the processing target "CM003" is obtained.

[0074] In S1104, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 determines the section that includes the edited video section acquired in S1103 from among the sections held in the "Section of Edited Video" column in the configuration information area 901 of Figure 9. Then, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 acquires the value of the "Video ID of Source Video" and the value of the "Section of Source Video" held in the row containing the determined section in the configuration information area 901.

[0075] For example, if "00:10~00:15" is obtained in S1103, then "00:00~00:15" among the intervals held in the "Interval of Edited Video" column in the configuration information area 901 of Figure 9 is determined to be the interval that includes "00:10~00:15". Therefore, "M004" is obtained from the "Video ID of Source Video" in row 911 of the configuration information area 901 of Figure 9, and "00:20~00:35" is obtained from the "Interval of Source Video".

[0076] In S1105, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 identifies the reshoot section in the source video. For example, for the reshoot instruction of the processing target "CM003", the reshoot section in the edited video is "00:10~00:15". As shown in Figure 7, this section corresponds to the section "00:30~00:35" in the source video with video ID "M004". Therefore, the reshoot section in the source video is identified as "00:30~00:35".

[0077] An example of how to identify a reshoot section in source video is explained. From the configuration information area 901 in Figure 9, it can be confirmed that the section "00:00~00:15" in the edited video corresponds to the section "00:20~00:35" in the source video "M004". Since the reshoot section in the edited video is "00:10~00:15", the reshoot section is the section that starts 10 seconds after the edited video section "00:00~00:15" held in row 911 of the configuration information area 901. Therefore, since the reshoot section in the source video is 10 seconds after the section "00:20~00:35" held in row 911, it can be identified that "00:30~00:35" is the reshoot section in the source video "M004".

[0078] In S1106, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 associates the information acquired in S1102, S1104, and S1105 with the reshoot instruction ID to be processed, and generates one line of data to be included in the reshoot instruction data 305.

[0079] In other words, if the reshoot instruction ID for the processing target is "CM003", then, as shown in Figure 10, the "Reshoot Instruction ID" column of the reshoot instruction data 305 will contain "CM003". The "Video ID of the source video to be reshooted" column in the same row 1011 will contain "M004", which is the video ID of the source video determined in S1104. The "Reshoot section in the source video" column in row 1011 will contain "00:30~00:35", which was identified in S1105. The "Reshoot Instruction Comment" column in row 1011 will contain the comment obtained in S1102. Thus, a reshoot instruction with "Reshoot Instruction ID" "CM003" is generated in row 1011. A reshoot instruction with "Reshoot Instruction ID" "CM004" is generated in row 1012 using the same method.

[0080] The "Video ID of the source video to be reshot" in the reshoot instruction data 305 contains information to inform the video recording device 102 of the video file containing the section to be reshot. The "section to be reshot in the source video" indicates which section of the video to be reshot should be reshot.

[0081] [Regarding processing during reshoots] Figure 4(b) is a flowchart illustrating the video transmission process in the video recording device 102 when the video recording device 102 receives the reshoot instruction data 305 transmitted by S613 in Figure 6.

[0082] In S411, the transmit / receive control unit 317 of the video recording device 102 receives the reshoot instruction data 305 shown in Figure 10 transmitted by the video editing device 101 via the communication unit 213, and saves the received reshoot instruction data 305.

[0083] In S412, the reshoot instruction screen generation unit 314 generates a screen to present the reshoot instruction to the photographer. The display input control unit 318 of the video recording device 102 displays the screen generated by the reshoot instruction screen generation unit 314 on the display input unit 215 of the video recording device 102.

[0084] Figure 12 shows an example of a screen displayed by the display input control unit 318 of the video recording device 102 in S412. Figure 12(a) shows an example of a reshoot instruction list screen 1200, which is displayed when reshoot instruction data 305 is received. The reshoot instruction list screen 1200 is displayed on the display input unit 215 of the video recording device 102 and presented to the photographer using the video recording device 102. The reshoot instruction list screen 1200 includes UI buttons 1201 and 1202 corresponding to the reshoot instruction IDs included in the reshoot instruction data 305 received in S411. If the UI buttons indicating the reshoot instruction IDs do not fit on the screen, the display input control unit 318 displays a scroll bar so that all UI buttons corresponding to the reshoot instruction IDs can be displayed. When either UI button 1201 or 1202 is pressed, the system transitions to the reshoot instruction display screen 1210, which displays the content of the reshoot instruction corresponding to the pressed UI button. For example, each step will be explained assuming that UI button 1201 is pressed.

[0085] Figure 12(b) shows an example of the reshoot instruction display screen 1210. The video display area 1211 included in the reshoot instruction display screen 1210 is an area that displays a video indicating the reshoot section in the source video to be reshot, in order to present the content of the reshoot instruction to the photographer. For example, the reshoot instruction screen generation unit 314 obtains a video file with a video ID associated with the reshoot instruction ID corresponding to the UI button 1201 pressed on the reshoot instruction list screen 1200 shown in Figure 12(a) from the shooting video data 312. The reshoot instruction screen generation unit 314 displays the video in the video display area 1211 based on the video file obtained from the video of the section indicated by the "reshoot section in the source video" associated with the reshoot instruction ID corresponding to the UI button 1201 in the reshoot instruction data 305.

[0086] In other words, when the UI button 1201 corresponding to "CM003" is pressed, the video file of the source video "M004" associated with "CM003" is retrieved, as shown in Figure 10. Then, the video from the "M004" video file, specifically the section from "00:30 to 00:35", is played in the video display area 1211.

[0087] The bar 1212 included in the video display area 1211 indicates the video playback time. Since the reshoot instruction display screen 1210 is configured to play only the reshoot section, the playback time indicated by bar 1212, which is the reshoot section of the reshoot instruction, is "00:30~00:35". The playback position display cursor 1213 indicates the current time on the playback time bar 1212.

[0088] The reshoot instruction content display area 1214 displays the reshoot instruction ID corresponding to the pressed UI button 1201. The reshoot instruction content display area 1214 also displays the comment held in the "reshoot instruction comment" associated with the reshoot instruction ID corresponding to the UI button 1201 in the reshoot instruction data 305 of Figure 10.

[0089] The shooting UI button 1205 is a button that allows the photographer to perform a retake. When the photographer clicks the shooting UI button 1205, the process transitions to S413, and a shot linked to the retake instruction is taken. In this embodiment, the content of the retake instruction can be presented to the photographer.

[0090] In S413, the video file management unit 311, similar to S401, causes the shooting unit 217 to shoot and generates a video file containing video and audio data.

[0091] In S414, the video file management unit 311 assigns an identifier to the metadata of the video file obtained as a result of reshooting in S413, and saves the video file as recorded video data 312.

[0092] Figure 5(b) illustrates an example of a video file saved as recorded video data 312 as a result of reshooting in S414. The video ID included in the metadata of the video file obtained as a result of reshooting in S413 holds a new video ID. In addition, the reshoot instruction ID holds the reshoot instruction ID selected by the photographer when pressing the UI button 1201 on the reshoot instruction list screen 1200.

[0093] Thus, the metadata of the video file obtained as a result of reshooting includes a reshoot instruction ID. Therefore, an editor who receives the video file can identify that it is a reshooted video and can also identify which reshoot instruction it corresponds to.

[0094] In S415, the transmission / reception control unit 317 transmits the video file obtained as a result of S414 to the video editing device 101 via the communication unit 213.

[0095] In S416, the video file management unit 311 determines whether it has performed reshoots for all reshoot instructions included in the reshoot instruction data 305 received in S411. If the video file management unit 311 determines that there are reshoot instructions that have not been reshooted (S416 is NO), it returns to S412; otherwise (S416 is YES), the flowchart in Figure 4(b) ends.

[0096] When the video editing device 101 receives the video file transmitted by the video recording device 102 in S415, the flowchart in Figure 6 is resumed in the video editing device 101. Next, the processing of the video editing device 101 when a video file is received as a result of reshooting will be explained using the flowchart in Figure 6.

[0097] In S601, the transmission / reception control unit 307 receives the video file transmitted from the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203.

[0098] In S602, if the video file editing unit 301 determines that the video file received in S601 is a video file based on a reshooting instruction (S602 is YES), it proceeds to S606. The video indicated by the video file based on the reshooting instruction shall be called a reshooting video.

[0099] In S606, the video file editing unit 301 obtains the value of the reshoot instruction ID from the metadata of the video file received in S601. The video file editing unit 301 then searches for the editing information data 304 that holds the obtained reshoot instruction ID value and obtains the corresponding editing information data 304. The video file editing unit 301 obtains the reshoot section in the edited video from the reshoot instruction area 902 of the obtained editing information data 304. The video file editing unit 301 also identifies the edited video associated with the corresponding editing information data 304.

[0100] In S607, the display input control unit 308 displays the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 on the display input unit 205 of the video editing device 101.

[0101] Figure 13(a) shows an example of the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300. The re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 is the screen presented to the editor. The edited video display area 1301 included in the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 displays a video indicating the re-recorded section in the edited video. The section display 1302 included in the edited video display area 1301 indicates the section that will be replaced by the re-recorded video received in S601.

[0102] The re-recorded video display area 1304 included in the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 in Figure 13(a) is the area that displays the re-recorded video received by S601. The video ID display area 1305 is the area that displays the video ID of the re-recorded video.

[0103] The reshoot instruction display area 1303 displays the reshoot instruction ID that was stored in the metadata of the received reshoot video file. The reshoot instruction display area 1303 also displays the comment stored in the "reshoot instruction comment" associated with the reshoot instruction ID.

[0104] Thus, the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 is a screen that allows the editor to check the re-recorded video by displaying a comparison between the re-recorded section in the edited video and the re-recorded video that was re-recorded based on the re-recording instruction. By displaying the pre-re-recording and post-re-recording videos side by side on the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300, the editor can confirm whether the re-recorded section in the edited video should be replaced with the re-recorded video received by S601. When the editor clicks the apply button 1306, the re-recorded section in the edited video is replaced with the re-recorded video.

[0105] Figure 13(b) shows another example of the re-recorded video confirmation screen. In Figure 13(b), the same sign values ​​are used for the same parts as in Figure 13(a). In the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 of Figure 13(b), in addition to the re-recorded video display area 1304, there is a re-recorded video display area 1310 that displays another re-recorded video. The video ID display area 1311 is an area that displays the video ID of the re-recorded video displayed in the re-recorded video display area 1310.

[0106] The video editing device 101 may receive multiple video files from the video recording device 102 as re-recorded videos, each containing the same value for the re-recording instruction ID in the metadata. In this case, as shown in Figure 13(b), the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 may display multiple re-recorded videos with the same re-recording instruction ID side by side. By displaying multiple re-recorded videos in this way, the editor can compare the multiple re-recorded videos and then select the re-recorded video to be replaced. When multiple re-recorded videos are displayed, a screen is generated that allows the editor to select the video to be replaced from among the re-recorded videos using the pull-down menu 1312. When the apply button 1313 is pressed, the re-recorded section in the edited video is replaced with the video selected in the pull-down menu 1312.

[0107] In S608, the video file editing unit 301 determines, via the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300, whether an instruction has been given to replace the re-recorded section in the edited video with the re-recorded video.

[0108] If the video file editing unit 301 determines that it has been instructed to replace the video with a re-recorded video (S608 is YES), it proceeds to S609; otherwise (S608 is NO), it skips S609 and S610 and proceeds to S611.

[0109] In S609, the video file editing unit 301 performs a replacement process that replaces the re-recorded sections in the edited video with the re-recorded video.

[0110] Figure 14(a) shows the updated edited video when the Apply button 1306 is pressed while the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 is in the state shown in Figure 13(a). The re-recording instruction indicated by "CM003" was an instruction to re-record the section of the edited video from "00:10 to 00:15". Then, a re-recorded video with video ID "M005" obtained by re-recording based on the re-recording instruction indicated by "CM003" is received, and the Apply button 1306 on the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 is pressed. In this case, the section of the edited video from "00:10 to 00:15" will be replaced with the re-recorded video with video ID "M005".

[0111] In S610, the video file editing unit 301 updates the editing information data 304 of the edited video. Then the process proceeds to S611. Figure 14(b) shows the configuration information area 901 in the updated editing information data 304 when the apply button 1306 is pressed while the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300 shown in Figure 13(a) is in view.

[0112] In the above explanation, it was stated that the editor instructs whether or not to replace the re-recorded section in the edited video with a re-recorded video via the re-recorded video confirmation screen 1300. However, it is also possible to have the re-recorded video be replaced automatically without the editor's instruction. In this case, if the video file received at S601 is determined to be a video file based on a re-recording instruction (S602 is YES), the process may proceed to S609.

[0113] Furthermore, although Figure 6 describes the video editing device 101 as performing a process to replace the re-shot section in the edited video with the re-shot video, the processing of the video editing device 101 may be limited to notifying the editor that the re-shot video has been received. In that case, the processing in S608 to S610 may not be performed, and the editor may use the re-shot video received in S601 to replace the re-shot section in the edited video with the re-shot video using separate editing software.

[0114] In video production, there are cases where raw footage shot by a cameraman on location is handed over to a video editor at the broadcasting station, who then combines the footage to create a new video. A common method for transferring raw footage from a cameraman to a video editor is via communication methods such as networks. This type of video transfer allows the video editor to immediately review the footage shot by the cameraman, enabling them to instruct the cameraman to reshoot the received footage.

[0115] In such cases, according to this embodiment, the editor only needs to specify the section that needs to be replaced by reshooting from the edited video, thus reducing the effort required of the editor to find the target source video and the section within the target source video that needs to be reshot. Furthermore, the effort required of the editor to inform the photographer of the video file and section to be reshot by phone or text is reduced. The photographer can confirm the section to be reshot in the video, thus reducing the effort required of the photographer to find the video to be reshot and confirm the section that needs to be reshot. In addition, an identifier indicating the reshooting instruction is automatically assigned to the reshot video, thus reducing the effort required of the photographer to inform the editor which reshoot instruction the video is based on.

[0116] Although the above description focused on the case of instructing the system to reshoot a video, the method of this embodiment may also be applied to cases where the system instructs the system to reshoot a still image, such as when instructing the system to reshoot a single frame of an image.

[0117] Furthermore, edited videos may be generated using source video footage shot by multiple photographers using their respective video recording devices. In this case, for example, a camera identifier indicating the video recording device (camera) used for shooting may be further associated with the video file's metadata. The reshoot instruction data 305 in Figure 10 may be generated for each video file (source video) with the same camera identifier, so that the reshoot instruction data 305 generated for each video recording device is sent to the corresponding video recording device.

[0118] Furthermore, if the video recording device 102 does not have a shooting function, the video recording device 102 can receive a video file obtained by another camera reshooting and send that video file to the video editing device 101. In this case, the process of adding a reshoot instruction ID to the metadata of the video file to be sent may be done manually, or the photographer may select it from a list of reshoot instruction IDs.

[0119] <Embodiment 2> This embodiment describes an information processing system for cases where drawing data is included in the reshoot instruction data 305 transmitted from the video editing device 101 to the video recording device 102. This embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from Embodiment 1. Unless otherwise specified, the configuration and processing are the same as in Embodiment 1.

[0120] In this embodiment, when an editor issues a reshoot instruction, they can include drawing data in the reshoot instruction by operating the video editing device 101. The drawing data represents the image that will be superimposed on the reshoot instruction display screen when the video recording device 102 displays the reshoot instruction, and the position in which that image will be superimposed.

[0121] Figure 15 shows an example of the reshoot instruction data 305 of this embodiment when the reshoot instruction includes drawing data.

[0122] Figure 15(a) shows the reshoot instruction data 305 of this embodiment, which has the same structure as the data in Embodiment 1. Figure 15(b) shows an example of drawing data associated with a reshoot instruction held in the reshoot instruction data 305. In the drawing data 1500 of Figure 15(b), the "Reshoot Instruction ID" holds the reshoot instruction ID that indicates the reshoot instruction to which the drawing data 1500 is associated among the reshoot instructions held in the reshoot instruction data 305 of Figure 15(a). Therefore, the drawing data 1500 of Figure 15(b) is shown to be data associated with the reshoot instruction of "CM003". In the drawing data 1500, the "Drawing Image" holds the image (drawing image) drawn by the editor using a mouse or touch panel. In the drawing data 1500, the "Position (x,y)" holds the position to draw the drawing image on the reshoot instruction display screen.

[0123] In this embodiment, during the editing process in the video editing device 101 shown in Figure 6, if the editor instructs the reshooting instruction to include a drawing image, in S612 the reshooting instruction detection unit 306 generates drawing data 1500 in addition to the reshooting instruction data 305. Also, in S613 in Figure 6, the transmission / reception control unit 307 transmits the reshooting instruction data 305 and the drawing data 1500 to the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203.

[0124] Figure 16 shows an example of the reshoot instruction list screen displayed on the display input unit 215 of the video recording device 102 in step S412 of Figure 4(b) of this embodiment. In this embodiment, instead of displaying the reshoot instruction display screen 1210 of Figure 12(b), the reshoot instruction display screen 1600 of Figure 16 is displayed.

[0125] In Figure 16, the same signs are used for the same parts as in Figure 12(b). The video display area 1603 included in the reshoot instruction display screen 1600 is the area that displays the video of the reshoot section in the source video to be reshooted. Unlike Figure 12(b), the drawing images 1601 and 1602 are superimposed on the video display area 1603 in Figure 16. Drawing images 1601 and 1602 are the drawing images held in the "drawing image" of the drawing data 1500 in Figure 15(b), and drawing images 1601 and 1602 are displayed superimposed on the positions held in the "position (x,y)" column of Figure 15(b).

[0126] Thus, in this embodiment, the drawing image specified by the editor can be superimposed on the video of the reshoot section in the source video to be reshot, and displayed on the display input unit 215 of the video recording device 102. For this reason, according to this embodiment, the reshoot instruction can be communicated to the photographer in a clearer manner.

[0127] Figure 17(a) shows an example of drawing data when the editor specifies the position and size of the drawing image for each playback time of the source video. In this way, the drawing image superimposed on the source video to be reshot in the video display area 1603 may change in size or position for each time of the video displayed in the video display area 1603.

[0128] The plotting data 1700 in Figure 17(a) includes a column called "Change". The "Change" column holds information about how the plotted images are superimposed at what time.

[0129] In Figure 17(a), row 1701 contains: <1> The drawing image 1601, which contains the number, indicates that it retains information that it is an instruction to superimpose without change over time.

[0130] In Figure 17(a), rows 1702-1704 contain: <2> The drawing image 1602, which contains the numbers, indicates that it holds information that it is an instruction to change over time and be displayed in superimposed. For example, line 1702 contains, <2> The drawing image 1602, which has the numbers written on it, indicates that at 00:30 it will be displayed superimposed at 100% size and position (10, 20). Line 1703 indicates that at 00:31 the drawing image 1602 will be displayed superimposed at 80% size and position (100, 110), and that its size and position will gradually change from 00:30 onwards.

[0131] Figures 17(b) and 17(c) show an example of the reshoot instruction list screen displayed by the video recording device 102 in S412 of Figure 4(b) when the video recording device 102 receives the drawing data 1700 of Figure 17(a). Figure 17(b) is the reshoot instruction display screen 1600 where the playback of the source video to be reshot is at 00:30, with a size of 100% and a position of (10, 20). <2> A drawing image 1602 with the numbers written on it is displayed in the video display area 1603. Figure 17(c) is the reshoot instruction display screen 1600 where the playback of the source video to be reshot is at 00:31, with a size of 80% and a position of (100, 110). <2> A drawing image 1602 with the number "..." is displayed.

[0132] As described above, this embodiment describes a method for clearly communicating reshoot instructions to the photographer by superimposing a drawn image onto the source video to be reshot in the video recording device 102. Alternatively, for example, an image of what it would look like if shot with a specified composition could be generated by cutting out frames with similar compositions from the source video, or by using a generation AI to generate it.

[0133] <Embodiment 3> This embodiment describes an information processing system capable of including location information in the re-shooting instruction data 305. This embodiment will be described focusing on the differences from Embodiment 1. Unless otherwise specified, the configuration and processing are the same as in Embodiment 1.

[0134] In this embodiment, the editor can associate location information with a reshoot instruction by operating the video editing device 101. For example, if the editor wants to specify the location where the photographer will shoot during a reshoot, they can include location information (latitude, longitude) indicating that location in the reshoot instruction.

[0135] Figure 18 shows an example of the reshoot instruction data 305 of this embodiment. The reshoot instruction data 305 of this embodiment includes a column of "specified location information" that holds the location information described above.

[0136] In this embodiment, at S612 shown in Figure 6, the reshoot instruction detection unit 306 generates reshoot instruction data 305 which includes a column of "specified position information" as shown in Figure 18. Also, at S613 in Figure 6, the transmission / reception control unit 307 transmits the reshoot instruction data 305 as shown in Figure 18 to the video recording device 102 via the communication unit 203.

[0137] Figure 19 is a diagram illustrating an example of a video file stored in the video recording device 102 as recorded video data 312 in this embodiment. In this embodiment, in addition to the video ID and re-recording instruction ID, location information is included as an item in the metadata of the video file. The location information may hold a value indicating the location at the time of shooting obtained from the GPS function of the video recording device 102, or it may hold a value obtained by the photographer inputting a value obtained from their own terminal or the like into the video recording device 102.

[0138] Thus, in this embodiment, the video file of the source video includes location information at the time of shooting. Therefore, the editor can display the location indicated by the location information (latitude, longitude) included in the metadata of the source video to be reshot using a map application and specify the location to be conveyed to the photographer from the map application. In this case, the video editing device 101 may acquire the location information indicating the location specified by the editor via the map application and store it as "location information" in the reshoot instruction data 305. Alternatively, the editor may input the values ​​(latitude, longitude) to be stored as "location information" in the reshoot instruction data 305 as numerical values.

[0139] Figure 20(a) is a diagram showing an example of a reshoot instruction display screen displayed on the display input unit 215 of the video recording device 102 in S412 of Figure 4(b) of this embodiment. In this embodiment, instead of displaying the reshoot instruction display screen 1210 of Figure 12(b), the reshoot instruction display screen 2000 of Figure 20(a) is displayed. The difference from the reshoot instruction display screen 1210 shown in Figure 12(b) is that the reshoot instruction display screen 2000 of Figure 20(a) has a position display button 2001 added to it.

[0140] Figure 20(b) shows an example of a location display screen that appears when the photographer presses the location display button 2001. The pointer 2003 included in the map display area 2002 on the location display screen 2010 indicates the location indicated by the specified location information associated with the reshoot instruction ID selected by the photographer in the reshoot instruction data 305 shown in Figure 18. The map display area 2002 also shows a map of the area around the location indicated by the specified location information shown in Figure 18. When the back button 2004 is pressed, the user can return to the reshoot instruction display screen 2000 shown in Figure 20(a).

[0141] As explained above, this embodiment makes it possible to communicate instructions for reshooting to the photographer in a clearer manner.
