VideoJot: A Multifunctional Video Annot...

Videos are becoming more and more a tool of communication. There are how-to videos, people are discussing actions of others based on their recorded performance, e.g., in soccer, or they simply record videos of great moments and show them to friends and family. In this paper we focus on very specific how-to videos and present a novel, web based annotation tool, that combines (i) zoom, (ii) drawing, and (iii) temporal social bookmarking in video streams. Moreover, we present a short study on the usefulness of the tool to communicate general concepts of a specific video game based on a captured game session.
