Abstract:- Video lectures are considered among reliable means for delivering class room content to distant students. Such videos are recorded manually which involves considerable time and cost of human personnel. This paper presents a novel framework for the recording of such videos. Gesture recognition and scene analysis are carried to locate the intended area of interest in the scene, to be captured by the video camera. Master-slave camera architecture is proposed for practical implementation of the system. Gesture recognition and scene analysis algorithms are applied to the video of master camera to locate intended area of interest. This information is then passed to slave camera to capture the video. Key-Words:- video lecture, gesture recognition, autonomous recording, distance learning, intelligent video
