DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0024] The present invention overcomes the limitations of the prior art by providing a system 100 for real time videographic digital and production ready art 118 that is easy and flexible to use.

[0025] The system 100 greatly streamlines and shortens the amount of time that is taken shopping and looking for patterns, applying them to production drawings, and the approval process involved in design for design teams. Traditionally designers would have to look through countless pattern books either digital or analog and sort through them. There is no other platform or software that allows patterns to be pulled from photos or videos for application on real world products. The system 100 enables the use of photos and video to provide a unique mechanism for selecting patterns or prints, deriving patterns or prints, and applying patterns or prints to a product but allows the designer to pull complementing and similar patterns/prints seamlessly. Using the system 100 design, pattern selection, and pattern placement, create licensable still images from a video. Licensing refers to the patterns and prints stored in the system 100 that will be licensed on a per image basis prior to exporting or downloading any production ready art 118. The from a system 100 provider. Other pattern and print owners can also license their image and video stock to the designers using the system 100. The user can be granted a paid license by a subscription purchased in advance or at the time prior to exporting/downloading the production ready art 118.

[0026] Additionally, overlaying a still image, such as, for example an outline, a .cad design file 120, or a 3D image 122, on the video and being able to move the still image by rotating it, offsetting it or any other manipulation that can be done with the design file provides flexibility that was not possible before without major costs and time. When the designer or design team finds the image or images that they want to use, the images can exported out as selected frames based on time or frame identifiers to a production ready art 118 file and downloaded or sent to printers, editors, and others involved in the pattern or print application and product production process.

[0027] The system 100 provides a major competitive advantage in being able to isolate frames from a video for licensing from a cost perspective, because the entire video does not have to be licensed, only the frames used. Additionally, the system 100 is faster in showing patterns that can be viewed on a cut ready or 3D design almost instantaneously. Tremendous amounts of time will be saved by utilizing the system 100 for both initial design phases but also for ancillary and complementary products because of the way the system 100 can pull stills from different prints and patterns and/or can enable viewing of different orientations of the same patterns and prints on the same products or different products quickly.

[0028] Any and all dimensions specified in this disclosure are by way of example only and are not intended to be limiting. Further, the proportions shown in these figures are not necessarily to scale. As will be understood by those with skill in the art with reference to this disclosure, the actual dimensions and proportions of any system 100, any device or part of a system 100 or device disclosed in this disclosure will be determined by its intended use.

[0036] In the following description, certain terminology is used to describe certain features of one or more embodiments of the invention.

[0037] The term “smart device” refers to any Internet connected device with a display that can be used to upload, download and view multimedia.

[0038] The term “production ready art 118” refers to print ready copy for publication online or in printed publications, such as a magazine with at least a 300 dpi resolution.

[0039] The term “video file” refers to any multimedia file comprising a resolution of at least 300 dpi at the scale of the garment for printing purposes, and a sample resolution that is lower resolution used to quickly review potential production ready art 118 that is used prior to a final selection and download of the production ready art 118.

[0040] The term “design file” refers to .cad, 3D, line drawing, and any other file format of a product that can be overlaid with a video file 122 to shown many different patterns and options to one or more than one designer to make production ready art 118.

[0041] Various embodiments provide a system 100 for real time videographic digital and production ready art 118. One embodiment of the present invention provides a system 100 For Real Time videographic digital and production ready art 118. In another embodiment, there is provided a method for using the system 100. The system 100 and method will now be disclosed in detail.

[0042] Referring now to FIG. 1, there is shown a drawing of a system 100 for real time videographic digital and production ready art 118 that is easy and flexible to use, according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0043] The system 100 provides computer implemented instructions executable on one or more processors for a user to upload a video or still image and utilizing the uploaded design file overlaid over various selected videos to create targeted still images for commercial use and licensing. The system 100 provides a faster way for designers to pull and buy patterns to create production ready art 118, but also to sell the videos to the fashion market using the design files output from the system 100. The uploaded design file is necessary to show the dimensions of the usable surface area that can receive a print, and the video provides a way to readily change and select from a large amount of potential patterns as well as to print easily and quickly for any selected pattern.

[0044] The system 100 provides video artists, designers, design teams, and creators the opportunity to license still images and whole videos to clients for commercial use in a way never done before. Prior to this invention, video art was generally more difficult to monetize and portray than still art due to the complexity and time involved.

[0045] The system 100 streamlines and shortens the amount of time that is taken by designers shopping for patterns, applying them to production drawings, reviewing the combined result and obtaining approval of the design. Traditionally designers would look through countless pattern books, either digital or analog and sort through them. There is no other platform or software that allows patterns to be pulled from videos for application on real world products. Allowing the use of video not only provides a unique mechanism for deriving the patterns or prints, but allows the designer to pull complementing and similar patterns/prints seamlessly.

[0046] The designer can manipulate the design file that was uploaded and can change the background video to any selected from a library provided with the system 100. Alternatively, the designer can upload their own video and design files and manipulate the files using the system 100. Such as, for example, moving a garment design or move the video. The system 100 provides a digital light board that can display specific time frames of video created by the above process and from that set of time frames, the designer can select specific frames that have associated frame marks. Each specific frame mark can then be compared with other frame marks as the potential final selection for the production ready art 118 which may use the same pattern in various positions on the product to which it is to be applied and/or a different pattern or patterns in the same and/or various positions on the product to which it is to be applied. Alternatively, a plurality of time frames can be selected as a video to be used as the production ready art 118.

[0047] Referring now to FIGS. 2 and 3, there is shown an uploaded video 200 and 300 useful in the system 100 of FIG. 1. FIG. 2 is an example of the system 100 operating on a computer 200. However, in this embodiment, the system 100 is a software as a service model. This allows low computing power smart devices 300, such as, for example, a tablet as shown in FIG. 3 to upload design files 120 and perform all the operations necessary to make production ready art 118. This opens up the design process to anyone with a smart phone or a tablet and an Internet connection. As will be understood by those with skill in the art with respect to this disclosure, a stand alone software version is also contemplated.

[0048] In another embodiment, it is contemplated that the designer can upload a video file 122 or design file or both a video file 122 and a design file 120 for use in the system 100. In the first example, the designer can preselect and use one or more than one design file 120 and apply the uploaded video file 122 to the one or more than one design file 120. The resultant production ready art 118 can then be download or sent to a third party fulfillment vendor to produce a tangible product, such as for example, a vinyl wrap for a vehicle, a coffee mug, a pen, a piece of furniture, various art, tableware, apparel, fashion accessories, backpacks, among other items.

[0070] Referring now to FIG. 4, there is shown a digital light table 400 for viewing individual frames 402 of production ready art 118. As can be seen, a selected time frame 402 of individual frames 404 is shown from a selected time frame 402 of the combined video. Individually selected time frames are shown on the right hand side of the digital light table. The designer can swap and replace any of the individual time frames 402 from either side of the digital light table. It is also noted that in some embodiments, various aspects of the pattern may be changed too such as color, line thickness, texture, and/or scale.

[0071] Referring now to FIG. 5, there is shown a group of individual frames 500 of production ready art 118. After the selection process is complete, each individual time frame 504 can be shown with a frame mark 502 included in the time frame image. This allows the designer to find one or more specific frames to export.

[0072] Referring now to FIG. 6, there is shown a sample of the uploaded design file 600 applied to the production ready art 118. As can be seen, this is the final selection for the production ready art 118. Both a time frame 602 and a frame number 604 are shown so that the final production ready art 118 can be automatically retrieved by the system 100, exported and downloaded or stored by the designer.

[0073] Referring now to FIG. 7, there is shown a flowchart diagram 700 of some step of a computerized method to use the system 100 of FIG. 1. In this embodiment, the system 100 is operating as a software service in the cloud. First, a user logs onto 702 the system 100. Then, the user uploads a design file 704 that is stored in the system 100 under the user's credentials. Next, if the user has a video file 122 to use 706, that video file 122 is uploaded 710 and stored under the user's credentials. Otherwise, the user selects a video to use 708 from a library of videos stored in the system 100 or otherwise accessed by the system 100. Then, the design file of the product such as clothing is displayed 711 in the foreground with the selected video playing in the background 712. Next, the video in the background displays 716 a frame stamp and a time stamp to identify individual frames of the video. Then, the user manipulates the design file over the video to find one or more frames or time periods to use in selecting production ready art 118. Next, the user exports 714 one or more than one design/video file 122 to a production ready file format. Then, the user exports 716 any variation of the design/video file 122 using the selected frame stamp or a time stamp so that multiple complete files can be exported 718. Finally, the user selects 720 and uses the exported files. The user may repeat the process or parts of the process with another video of a pattern or print and/or with another product design file.

[0074] Referring now to FIG. 8, there is shown a flowchart diagram 800 of some step of a computerized method to use the system 100 of FIG. 1 for non-fungible tokens (NFT's). As can be seen, the computerized method comprised five steps. First one or more than one design is selected 802 (as outlined above). Then the design is fully developed 804. Next, the design is placed in a digital experience 806, such as, for example, a virtual catwalk, for other's to view. Then, the one or more than one design is minted 808 into a NFT that can then be collected. Finally, the one or more than one design and the NFT are published 810. Each step of the method is discussed in detail below.

[0075] Design

[0076] In this step the one or more than one design is developed. This includes a rendering process. Once the one or more than one design has been rendered, the entire project is saved. Each of the one or more than one design can be added to a collection or the user can create a new collection for the remaining steps.

[0077] Digital Experience

[0078] Referring now to FIG. 9, there is shown an image of a virtual catwalk 900 useful for showcasing garments and collections. Preferably, the virtual catwalk 900 comprises a 360 degree view of the designs and/or collections. In this step, the user has the ability to change background themes of the virtual catwalk 900. The virtual stage 902 in the background can be integrated with the selected designs/collections being shown. This allows designers and creatives the ability to present their specialized products and collections to their teams, buyers, and customers for production in real life and or for digital worlds, commonly refereed to as the metaverse.

[0079] Mint & Collect

[0080] The virtual catwalk runway experience, products, and garments, can be minted into NFT's. The user will be able to connect their cryptocurrency wallets, to these crypto items. All parts of the system 100 will be fully integratable with any cryptocurrency platform. First, everything must be prepared using an NFT process. Then, the NFT's are then put into a user's crypto-wallet.

[0081] The collection step provides instructions so that the integrated outfits can be shown to users on various Internet platforms, such as, for example, Twitch, for use and collection by video games, and video game players. The designers/collection for particular characters can be created as described above in both virtual clothing and in real life. This way a gamer can wear the clothing of their character or avatar.

[0082] Publish

[0083] In this step, the system 100 comprises instructions to prepare the NFT for exporting and publishing for the digital world, or Metaverse.

[0084] In yet another embodiment, the system 100 can also integrate the library of designs stored in the system 100 into the digital world (metaverse) for digital space customization.

[0085] What has been described is a new and improved system 100 for a system 100 for real time videographic digital and production ready art 118 that is easy and flexible to use, overcoming the limitations and disadvantages inherent in the related art.
