An automatic personalized media creation system provides a capture area for a user. A performance of the user is automatically captured. The video and/or audio of the performance is recorded using a video camera that is automatically adjusted to the user's physical dimensions and position. The performance is analyzed for acceptability and the user is asked to re-perform the desired actions if the performance is unacceptable. The desired footage of the acceptable performance is automatically composited or edited onto pre-recorded and/or dynamic media template footage and is rendered and stored for later delivery. The user selects the media template footage from a set of footage templates. An interactive display area is provided outside of the capture area where the user reviews the rendered footage and specifies the delivery medium.
