Enhanced capture, management and distribution of live presentations
First Claim
1. A system for capturing and distributing presentations, comprising:
- at least two capture devices configured to capture media assets of live presentations comprising a session, the media assets including
1) image data of a plurality of sequentially presented visual aids accompanying the live presentations and
2) audio data, wherein at least two of the visual aids are selected from the group of images consisting of slides, photographs, graphs, discrete motion picture clips, and text, and wherein each capture device includes an interface that enables real-time
1) image data marking of the image data for identification of individual images and
2) session marking of the image data for demarcation of individual presentations of the session;
a centralized device configured to process the captured media assets from each capture device, wherein the centralized device is configured to automatically divide the captured media assets for the session into discrete files associated with the individual presentations based on the session markings;
an administrative tool configured to manage the processed captured media assets to produce modified presentations, wherein the administrative tool enables modification of the visual aid images identified by the image data markings; and
a production device configured to format the modified presentations of at least one session for distribution on distribution media.

Abstract
Techniques are provided for converting live presentations into electronic media and managing captured media assets for distribution. An exemplary system includes capture devices that capture media assets of live presentations comprising a session, including image data of sequentially presented visual aids accompanying the live presentations and audio data. Each capture device has an interface for real-time image data marking of the image data for identification of individual images and session marking of the image data for demarcation of individual presentations of the session. A centralized device processes the captured media assets and automatically divides the captured media assets into discrete files associated with the individual presentations based on the session markings. An administrative tool manages the processed media assets to produce modified presentations and enables modification of the visual aid images identified by the image data markings. A production device formats the modified presentations for distribution on distribution media.
