Semantically-segmented video compression includes loading a frame of video imagery, determining a context for the frame, selecting an object of interest for the context and identifying within the frame, a portion of the frame of the imagery deemed to be of greater interest than other portions of the frame of video imagery based upon the object of interest of the context determined for the video imagery, and an object, that has been pre-specified to be of importance to the context. A hybrid compression of the video imagery is then performed that includes both a higher quality compression of the portion of the video imagery determined to be a region of higher interest that produces a minimization of loss during decompression and also a compression of the other portions of the video imagery determined not to be a region of higher interest that produces more loss during decompression.
