Estimating the term…
A graphical user interface for a computer-assisted motion video editing system directs a user through the process of editing a video program. The graphical user interface may also enables a user to plan a video program. Alternatively selectable interfaces within a single window interface, each of which provide a group of planning, capturing, editing, and recording functions can provide such an interface for producing a video program. Other simplifications to the user interface can be provided to assist in editing, such as by maintaining a video display window for displaying the edited video program at a fixed position for all available editing operations. Additionally, video information can be captured directly into a timeline representation of a video program, rather than a bin. Using a storyboard tied to the capturing process, a user is directed through the process of collecting and capturing the video clips to be used in the video program.
A computer program product, comprising:
A graphical user interface for computer-based editing of video using a timeline wherein the timeline includes representations of clips of video, wherein each clip has a duration on the timeline, and wherein the graphical user interface includes trim handles for the user to select an edge of a clip and to perform a trim operation by dragging the edge of the clip to a desired trim point.
