A framework to create video-transition effects
Jiajun Bu, Zhao Chuan-yu, Chun Chen · Journal of Zhejiang University Science · 2005
The paper presents a framework for developing a variety of video transition effects. The framework is designed to deal with the problem of inefficiency for programmers to generate more and more diversified video transition, which is caused by excessive coupling between the sub-modules of the system. So the framework is designed to be modular, flexible and extensible. Based on the analysis of common features of different effects, the implementation of video transition effect is divided into 4 sub-modules, each of which can be designed and developed independently. Furthermore, these sub-modules can be easily substituted, modified and reused. We present a formal description of our framework, and give typical study cases to show the extensive utility of the framework.
