Abstract:
Vocal audio of a user together with performance synchronized video is captured and coordinated with audiovisual contributions of other users to form composite duet-style or glee club-style or window-paned music video-style audiovisual performances. In some cases, the vocal performances of individual users are captured (together with performance synchronized video) on mobile devices, television-type display and/or set-top box equipment in the context of karaoke-style presentations of lyrics in correspondence with audible renderings of a backing track. Contributions of multiple vocalists are coordinated and mixed in a manner that selects for presentation, at any given time along a given performance timeline, performance synchronized video of one or more of the contributors. Selections are in accord with a visual progression that codes a sequence of visual layouts in correspondence with other coded aspects of a performance score such as pitch tracks, backing audio, lyrics, sections and/or vocal parts.

Claim (Index 2):
A method of preparing a coordinated audiovisual work from performer contributions captured at respective geographically distributed, but network-connected, audiovisual capture devices, the method comprising:\n receiving at least first and second computer readable encodings of respective audiovisual performances, each having temporal correspondence with a seed and each including respective performer vocals and respective temporally synchronized video captured at respective ones of the audiovisual capture devices; based on a computer readable encoding of a visual progression that encodes, in temporal correspondence with the seed, a succession of templated screen layouts each specifying a number and arrangement of visual cells in which respective of the videos are visually renderable, associating individual ones of the performer contributions, including the respective encodings of performer vocals and coordinated videos, to respective ones of the visual cells; and computationally rendering the coordinated audiovisual work, in accordance with the visual progression and the associations; as an audio mix and coordinated visual presentation of the captured performances.
