Advene Transcript: Tim Berners Lee's TED Talk

Let's see what we can do with an Advene project

A density view to see all annotations

  • We want the density view to be split in different sequences, taken from the "Parts" tier
  • Whether to display the annotation value on mouse over
Via a simple select, we fill the density view with all the annotations

A density view to see the transcript and video clips

  • Separate annotations based on another tier's annotations (used as sequences)
  • Whether to display the annotation value on mouse over
  • Whether to display the video player on click
Now we just select our Transcript annotations

Extract a random shot and anonymize Tim's face

We use a list view to display the shot
  • By default the annotation value is visible, but here we don't need it
  • Same with the tier name
We select all "shots" annotations from the corpus
We randomize the selection and keep only one annotation The randomize operation will always produce the same results when given the same annotations We can play with the "seed" attribute to get a different result
Now we want to anonymize the face of the speaker Because this processor is placed after a view that generated clips, it will automatically work on them.
  • The type of anonymisation to apply on the video

A timeline of one part with subtitles burned into video clips

We'll use a timeline view to display the clips
We select the part we want to extract
And we replace it with all the transcript annotations included in that part
Now we hardcode the subtitles on the video clips
So easy :)
