Cinemetrics

The initial code for this project was Frederic Brodbeck's bachelor graduation project at the Royal Academy of Arts (KABK), Den Haag code. http://cinemetrics.fredericbrodbeck.de/

The Idea

Cinemetrics is about measuring and visualizing movie data, in order to reveal the characteristics of films and to create a visual “fingerprint” for them. Information such as the editing structure, color, speech or motion are extracted, analyzed and transformed into graphic representations so that movies can be seen as a whole and easily interpreted or compared side by side.

Requirements

  • Vagrant
    • Fingers crossed, that's all you should need! The goal of this fork is to wrap all the dependencies needed for cinemetrics into a reusable, cross-platform Vagrantfile.

Installation

  • Clone the repo to your local machine or download the latest release.

Usage

  • Go to the repo folder in terminal and vagrant up
vagrant up
* That should run the provisioning shell script which will install (if everything goes according to plan...) all the necessary dependencies.
  • Place your video file inside the vagrant-data folder. Finder example
  • SSH into the Vagrant instance
vagrant ssh
  • Vagrant starts in a default sub-folder, so you'll need to navigate out to the main project folder
cd ../../vagrant

Folder structure inside Vagrant

  • With the your video file in place, work through each python file starting with 01_1_new-project.py. The syntax for your first command should look like:
$ python 01_1_new-project.py vagrant-data/THE_NAME_OF_YOUR_VIDEO_FILE.mp4

Feel free to open an issue if you have any trouble or even better, create a pull request for improvements to the code!
