Cliplets: Juxtaposing Still and Dynamic Imagery. Neel Joshi, Sisil Mehta, Steven Drucker, Eric Stollnitz, Hugues Hoppe, Matt Uyttendaele, and Michael Cohen. Here is a Techinical Report describing the underlying research: The publically available app is a result of this research project. What Are ClipletsMicrosoft Research Cliplets is an interactive app that gives users the power to create 'Cliplets' - a type of imagery that sits between st. We address this using several algorithms from computer graphics and vision. A key challenge is to avoid seam artifacts by maintaining spatiotemporal continuity in the cliplet composition. We develop a set of idioms, essentially spatiotemporal mappings, that characterize these cliplet elements, and use these idioms in an interactive system to quickly compose a cliplet from ordinary handheld video. Microsofts Research Cliplets is an interesting tool which enables you to extract one precious moment from a video, and focus specifically on that, producing something thats not quite a still, not really a video, but something in between. The tension between static and dynamic elements in a cliplet reinforces both aspects, strongly focusing the viewer’s attention or conveying a narrative. This project explores a form of visual media that juxtaposes still image and video segments, both spatially and temporally, to expressively abstract a moment. The video trimming dialog appears blank (doesnt display a preview of the video) if you have never launched Windows Media Player. Video loading relies on functionality and video codecs that were first included in Windows 7 - one more reason to upgrade your operating system. Cliplets is a research project from Microsoft Research. Cliplets will not run on Windows XP or Windows Vista.
