Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for time-synchronous voice annotation of video and audio media enable effective searching of time-based media content. A user record one or more types voice annotation onto corresponding named voice annotation tracks, which are stored within a media object comprising the time-based media and the annotations. The one or more annotation tracks can then be selectively searched for content using speech or text search terms. Various workflows enable voice annotation to be performed using media editing systems, or one or more stand alone voice annotations systems that permit multiple annotators to operate in parallel, generating different kinds of annotations, and returning their annotation tracks to a central location for consolidation.
