APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING A VIDEO SIGNAL CONTAINING SINGLE FRAME ANIMATION MATERIAL

摘要

Apparatus for processing a video signal derived by single frame animation for subsequent merging with live action material, comprises a motion vector estimator (11) for deriving motion vectors in dependence on motion in the picture sequence represented by the video signal, and an interpolator (12) and associated circuits (14 to 16) for blurring the images represented by the video signal of objects in the picture sequence so determined as being in motion in dependence on the motion vectors.
