Abstract
A method for selecting a display characteristic for a video annotation notification on a destination display device interconnected across a communications network to at least one source device that generates a video annotation includes receiving, determining, and selecting. An annotated video content is received from the at least one source device, wherein the annotated video content is associated with a source position in a video production hierarchy. A destination position is determined in the video production hierarchy for video content displayed on the destination display device. A correspondence is determined between the determined destination position and the source position associated with the annotated video content to define a relevance value. A content complexity value is determined based on the annotated video content. For the destination display device, one or more display characteristics of the video annotation notification is selected based on the relevance value and the determined content complexity value.
