    • Five Challenges for Intelligent Cinematography and Editing 

      Ronfard, Rémi (The Eurographics Association, 2017)
      In this position paper, we propose five challenges for advancing the state of the art in intelligent cinematography and editing by taking advantage of the huge quantity of cinematographic data (movies) and metadata (movie ...
