Systems and methods for rendering video with teleprompter script overlays are described. A video rendering system provides a user interface for displaying a script for use during the rendering of the video (e.g., while the user records and/or streams the video). The script is arranged such that it at least partially overlays the video feed and is positioned within the display of the user interface to produce a line of sight of a user corresponding to first region of a field of view of the video capture device. When a user's line of sight is fixed upon the script overlay (i.e., when the user is reading the script) and aligned with the first region of the field of view of the video capture device, a viewer of the video rendering is given a visual perception that the user is looking directly at the viewer (e.g., making eye contact).

Respectively customizable interactive audio/video content is provided to each of a plurality of computing devices during a networked communication session. At least some of the computing devices capture audio video content via a microphone and camera respectively operable with each of the at least some of the computing devices. Further, the at least one processor is configured to receive, from each of the at least some of the computing devices, the respective audio and video content. The at least one processor is configured to generate a composited interactive audio/video feed including at least one of the audio and video content received from each of the at least some computing devices during the networked communication session. Moreover, the at least one processor is configured to transmit to each of the plurality of computing devices during the networked communication session the composited interactive audio/video feed.

A system for a user taking photographs or videos to help evoke genuine emotions of one or a plurality of live camera subjects, comprising a digital device with a processor, a display, and system memory, a software application with a graphical user interface installed on the digital device or a remote server, wherein said application is used to store, manage, access, and view metadata tagged prompts, a pre-loaded library of metadata tagged prompts, wherein said prompts being emotive phrase(s), direction(s), image(s), sound(s), and/or animation(s), wherein said application has a two-stage filter to successively refine the list of prompts to be presented to the user, and a prompt delivery system to convey prompts to one or a plurality of live camera subjects.

A system and method for providing aural guidance in imaging a document is disclosed. Visually impaired people may have difficulty when imaging a document with a mobile computing device. The system and method may analyze the image of the document in the imaging device, and output one or more aural directions in order for the user to move the document and/or camera for proper imaging of the document. In that regard, those with visual impairments may be assisted in imaging documents using a mobile computing device.

Access to a networked communication session is provided to each of a plurality of user computing devices that are each configured with at least a camera, audio input subsystem, and audio output subsystem. During the networked communication session and after an audio input of a first user computing device detects a user speaking, the volume of the audio output subsystem of the first user computing device is adjusted. Further, the volume of the audio input subsystem of each of the other user computing devices is adjusted. Furthermore, after an audio input subsystem of a second user computing device detects a user of the second user computing device speaking, the volume of the audio output subsystem of the second user computing device is adjusted, as is the audio input subsystem of the other respective user computing devices and the audio output subsystem of the first user computing device.

Disclosed is a method of automated script generation with integrated video production; said method comprising assembling a script comprising a series of steps for a video production; communicating the series of steps of the video production to a central production management application; associating a digital input output device with a video acquisition device; communicating selected ones of the steps in production to said digital input output device; actuating said video acquisition device so as to give effect to said selected ones of said steps; communicating at least video content thus acquired by following said steps to said production management application; integrating said video content thus acquired with content derived by giving effect to others of said steps thereby to produce resultant video output content. Also disclosed is a system of automated script generation with integrated video production; said system including a server; a plurality of content contributors.

Various methods and systems are disclosed for near-infrared video compositing techniques and an associated immersive video environment. In an example, a system includes: a dual camera system having a visible light camera and an infrared camera to capture light from a field of view; and a display screen to reflect a video output projected from a display source. In this system configuration, the display screen is arranged relative to the dual camera system to allow infrared light and visible light from a field of view to travel through the display screen and reach the cameras of the dual camera system. In an example, the video output provides real-time video captured from the visible light camera, an information from the infrared camera is used to create a matte of an object in the field of view within the real-time video captured from the visible light camera.

In one or more implementations, programming code is provided to each of a plurality of Internet web site hosts. Connection information is received that represents a web page and/or a user. At least one database is accessed that stores information representing advertising content, audience criteria and/or advertising performance, and a premium publisher, a publisher network, and/or self-serve publishing, and a plurality of electronic coordinated presentations. Information representing one coordinated presentation is selected at least as a function of at least one of the received electronic connection information, the electronic advertiser information and the electronic publisher information, and at least some electronic authored coordinated presentation information is transmitted, that is usable to provide the one coordinated presentation with an Internet web page.

An aerial imaging element in a teleprompter system, a teleprompter and a teleprompter device includes one or more optical elements that bend incident light of an image and form a real image in the air, and further includes one or more translucent reflectors. The aerial imaging element is convenient to manufacture and is low in cost; the aerial imaging element enables an image displayed therein to form a real image in the air, which can be seen only at a certain angle. The aerial imaging element is applied to the prompt of aspects, such as news broadcasting and lecture giving, which is convenient and does not influence viewing or video recording at the scene.
