The invention proposes a video composition and editing method that is easy to use and can be implemented on consumer equipment having only limited display and/or calculating capacity. The invention comprises employing a description of the video input material Vi (such as a description of the MPEG-7 type for example), and asking the user to supply a multi-part plan for the video material Vo that he wishes to obtain as an output. The plan is then analyzed part by part to generate a search criterion relating to each part. A search is then made in the description D for each search criterion generated. The video segments that are selected in this way are juxtaposed to form the video output material. Applications: non-professional video composition and editing, digital cameras taking still or moving pictures.
A composition and editing method for producing output material (Vo) from at least one item of input material (Vi) comprising images and/or image sequences, characterized in that it comprises:
An item of electronic equipment fitted with means (11) for reading input material (Vi) comprising images and/or image sequences, and with means (12, 14, 16, CP) for processing said input material to produce output material (Vo) from said input material, characterized in that said processing means comprise:
