Title
Visual Movie Analytics.
Abstract
The analysis of inherent structures of movies plays an important role in studying stylistic devices and specific, content-related questions. Examples are the analysis of personal constellations in movie scenes, dialogue-based content analysis, or the investigation of image-based features. We provide a visual analytics approach that supports the analytical reasoning process to derive higher level insights about the content on a semantic level. Combining automatic methods for semantic scene analysis based on script and subtitle text, we perform a low-level analysis of the data automatically. Our approach features an interactive visualization that allows a multilayer interpretation of descriptive features to characterize movie content. For semantic analysis, we extract scene information from movie scripts and match them with the corresponding subtitles. With text- and image-based query techniques, we facilitate an interactive comparison of different movie scenes on an image and on a semantic level. We demonstrate how our approach can be applied for content analysis on a popular Hollywood movie.
