Audio-visual effects system for augmentation of captured performance based on content thereof

A method comprising:

• processing an audiovisual performance in an audiovisual processing pipeline to augment a machine-readable encoding of the audiovisual performance with temporally aligned visual effects,
• the processing including executing video effects planning code that, based on a selected video style recipe, maps computationally extracted audio features corresponding to a machine-readable encoding of the audiovisual performance to particular sets of visual effects and executing video effects rendering code that applies differing visual effects of the particular sets of visual effects to the audiovisual performance encoding in correspondence with differing audio features of the computationally extracted audio features.
