Abstract
The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “Interactive augmented video tools enable conten t creators to work more efficiently to produce video by combining different stag es of video production, namely, performance and postproduction.For example, a content creator can be a video’s subject while simultaneously triggering visual effects corresponding to their performance using body tracking and voice recogni tion technologies.Video content can then be further enhanced in post-production .However, live presentations cannot be edited in post-production, as the live v ideo stream would have been already presented to the target audience.Therefore, during live presentations, visual effects must be created and manipulated by th e content creator during video capture.
