This offers all attendees an opportunity to become aware of your paper, and thus to be attracted to attend your poster or talk. The videos will be short (maximum of 30 seconds) and without audio (we want to run them on multiple screens, and don\u2019t want to create a cacophony in the conference centre). As the examples below show, a 30-second silent video can quite effectively get across the main idea of one\u2019s work, even if very simply prepared.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/eccv2012.unifi.it\/wp-content\/plugins\/kvs-flv-player\/kt_player\/kt_player.js\"><\/script>\n<div id=\"kt_player\" style=\"visibility: hidden\">\n    <a href=\"http:\/\/adobe.com\/go\/getflashplayer\">This page requires Adobe Flash Player<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    var flashvars = {\n        video_url: 'http:\/\/eccv2012.unifi.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/eccv_video_fullres_300kbps.flv',\n        hide_controlbar: '1',\n        hide_style: 'fade',\n        bt: '5',\n    };\n    var params = {allowfullscreen: 'true', allowscriptaccess: 'always'};\n    kt_player('kt_player', 'http:\/\/eccv2012.unifi.it\/wp-content\/plugins\/kvs-flv-player\/kt_player\/kt_player.swf', '854', '480', flashvars, params);\n<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p>The video above shows some example spotlights. We chose six papers from various sources as an (arbitrary) basis. They are quite different: some are video-based, so naturally fit the format, others are purely mathematical, but I hope all three show the kind of approach one can take in a 30-second silent video. Most were prepared entirely in PowerPoint 2010 and took just a few tens of minutes to create.<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"margin-top: 20px;\">Format<\/h1>\n<p>Please submit a 960x480x30sec video. The video should not contain your names and affiliation: these will be added in a band at the top, as shown on the example video, yielding a 960&#215;540 qHD frame. It should not have audio \u2013 the intention is that these can run on several screens side-by-side without audio interference. The video may be uploaded to CMT (<a href=\"https:\/\/cmt.research.microsoft.com\/ECCV2012\">https:\/\/cmt.research.microsoft.com\/ECCV2012<\/a>) as a \u201cPresentation\u201d file (allowed extensions are: \u00a0.avi, .wmv, .mp4; for other formats\u00a0use .zip files to pack the video). The deadline is September 28th, see CMT for the precise time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Length<\/strong>: Maximum 30 sec.
