Enabling crowd-sourced video production

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a method includes determining a layout for an output screen. The layout may be determined based on a producer interface. A video production device operated either by a server or by a client device may display a plurality of data input streams on the output screen in accordance with the layout. Each of the data input streams may be generated by one of several image capture devices. Each image capture device may include a display screen that displays guidelines as the image capture device captures images. The guidelines may have a first dimension that is based on the layout. The video production device may receive an indication that the layout has changed. The video production device may send instructions to one or more of the image capture devices to adjust the guidelines to a second dimension based on the change to the layout.
