Video analytics and a mass storage unit are contained in a camera housing of a video camera. Video data representing a field of view of a scene observed by the camera are stored in the mass storage unit. The video analytics analyzes video data produced by the camera and detects whether there is an occurrence of a defined event of interest. A video clip of the scene representing the event of interest is sent to a remote storage unit. Since only about 1% of security video data is reviewed, storing only video data representing events of interest remotely, while storing more complete video data of the scene observed by the camera local to the camera, reduces the remote storage capacity and bandwidth demand for the video system. Remote redundant storage of events of interest also provides higher reliability and fault tolerant storage for the video data that are most important.
