Abstract :
This paper aims at providing a quantitative description of shot types commonly used in movie productions. Only qualitative descriptions are available in the literature and even these are subject to various naming conventions. A vocabulary is fixed and human body-based rules are defined to extract the shot types. A database was generated with a set of samples labeled by cinematography experts. The proposed approach was tested on the set of samples providing promising results.
