SYSTEMS FOR PRODUCING PERSONALIZED VIDEO CLIPS

摘要

A system for producing multiple personalized video sequences of a subject includes a storage medium (12) storing a foreground video sequence of an element of interest which has been pre-mixed to enable keyed superposition over an other video image, and a video camera (14) for generating a background video signal corresponding to a real-time video sequence of the subject. A mixer (16) superposes the foreground video sequence over the background video signal to produce a combination video sequence in which the subject appears together with an element of interest. A video monitor (18) is provided for displaying the combination video sequence as it is mixed. The system may be constructed as an automated machine with an automated payment system (26) and a media recorder (20) and feeder (24). Preferably, the system includes camera (14) and lighting control systems (50) for producing effects in the real-time video signal to mimic similar effects in the pre-recorded video sequence.
