Abstract
Disclosed is a method and system (500) for automated classification of a digital image (502). The method analyses the image for the presence of a human face. A determination is then made regarding the size of the located face compared to the size of the image(FIGS. 1A-1G) to classify the image based on the relative size of the face. Alternatively, the position of the face within the image can be used to determine the classification. With a classified image, particularly forming part of a sequence of classified images, editing (514) of the sequence may be performed dependent upon the classification to achieve a desired aesthetic effect. The editing may be performed with the aid of an editing template (706).
