Video de-abstraction or how to save money on your wedding video

There exist an increasing body of work dealing with video still abstraction, the extraction of representative still images from a video sequence. This work focuses in the other direction: given a video abstract and raw unedited video data, we produce an edited video. We focus on the application of generating wedding videos. We use the existing wedding photo album as an abstract, and produce an edited wedding video from it. The photo album serves us in determining importance of raw shots, as well as style and order.
