Abstract
The present system provides a method for a group of people, related or otherwise, to record an event on separate recording devices. The video from those recording devices can then be synchronized with each other. After synchronization, a composite movie is automatically generated using extracts from all or some of the video recordings. The composite movie is returned to a mobile device from where it can be shared and broadcast or re-edited inside the device.
