Abstract

A method of creating a light script for a video is disclosed. The light script comprises lighting control instructions for controlling one or more light sources when the video is being displayed. The method (600) comprises: —receiving a user input indicative of a selection of a lighting control instruction for a scene (S1, S11, S21, S31, S32), —associating the lighting control instruction (L1, L11, L21, L31, L32) with the scene (S1, S11, S21, S31, S32), —analyzing (602) the scene (S1, S11, S21, S31, S32) of the video to identify a scene characteristic (C1, C11, C21, C31, C32) in the scene, —analyzing (604) the video or another video to recognize, in a further scene (S4, S13, S24, S34), a similar or identical scene characteristic (C1, C11, C21, C31, C32), and—associating (606), based on the recognition of the similar or identical scene characteristic (C1, C11, C21, C31, C32), the lighting control instruction (L1, L11, L21, L31, L32) with the further scene (S4, S13, S24, S34), such that when the scene (S1, S11, S21, S31, S32) and the further scene (S4, S13, S24, S34) are being displayed the one or more light sources are control led according to the lighting control instruction (L1, L11, L21, L31, L32).
