Patent Images
1. A system, comprising:
- circuitry for identifying at least one media asset, the at least one media asset having one or more component elements feasible for alteration;
circuitry for determining one or more restricted component elements of the at least one media asset;
circuitry for determining at least one person associated with the one or more restricted component elements of the at least one media asset;
circuitry for sending at least one request for authorization to the determined at least one person, the at least one request related to the determined one or more restricted component elements of the at least one media asset;
circuitry for receiving at least one authorization related to at least one determined restricted component element of the at least one media asset;
circuitry for obtaining, in response to at least one received authorization, at least some substitute content for modification of the determined one or more restricted component elements of the at least one media asset for creating at least one derivative version of the at least one media asset; and
circuitry for implementing, in the at least one derivative version, at least one modification of at least one determined restricted component element based at least partially on at least some obtained substitute content.

Abstract
A classification method and system for possible content alteration of a media work may include criteria regarding content that is feasible for alteration. Such criteria may be maintained in records that are accessible to an interested party. Some embodiments may include a record of primary authorization rights applicable to a possible content alteration. A further embodiment feature may include a record of secondary authorization rights applicable to substitute altered content incorporated in a derivative version. Various techniques may be used to incorporate substitute altered content in a derivative version of the media work in accordance with applicable substitution guidelines.
