Abstract

A script synchronization interface system is disclosed for synchronizing a script, shot properties, and one or more video files by mapping associated metadata. The script synchronization interface system includes an interactive script section, an interactive video section, and an interactive shot section. The interactive script section includes synchronized script dialog that is selectable by individual word. A selected word in the synchronized script dialog within the interactive script section is linked to a video frame and a combination of 'shot set-up' and 'take' information associated with the selected word in the script dialog. The interactive video section includes a video player that plays a synchronized video. The synchronized video in the interactive video section is linked to synchronized script dialog in the interactive script section and a combination of “shot set-up” and “take” information associated with the selected word in the script dialog. The interactive shot section includes selectable vertical line segments, on-screen actor information, shot set-up information, and take numbers.
