1. A method of producing personalized image data for rendering on a display device, comprising:

  • accessing image data from an image source, wherein the image data comprises a sequence of image frames;

    automatically identifying a key image frame of the sequence of image frames, based on smooth region finding operations, detected regions of a specific texture, detected planar surfaces, detected text, or detected specific motion characters;

    receiving, via user input, at least one personalized object for insertion into the image data;

    inserting the at least one personalized object into the key image frame to produce personalized output image data wherein at least one of the original image data and the personalized object exhibits motion;

    extending the incorporation of the at least one personalized object to additional image frames of the image data;

    interpolating motion vectors to determine the location and appearance of the at least one personalized object for the additional image frames;

    subsequent to interpolating the motion vectors, querying a user to identify any errors in the location or the appearance of the at least one personalized object for the additional image frames;

    in response to the querying, receiving user correction input to adjust the location or the appearance of the at least one personalized object for the additional image frames; and

    interpolating motion vectors to determine the location and appearance of the at least one personalized object for the additional image frames based on the user correction input.
