We’ve seen some decent video alteration in our day, but this new research project by some folks at the University of Washington has the potential to turn the entire concept on its head. Using some rather advanced algorithms to analyze video and photographs of a the same scene, the software can meld the two into something slightly superior or even dramatically different. In effect, it’s Photoshop for video, since it brings your Photoshop chops to bear on video effects: edit up a still shot or two of the scene, and then meld that with the video, and your edits can be seamlessly integrated into the scene, without all that nasty manual labor required by Shake or After Effects. It’s not the end all be all yet, since the tech only works with static scenes so far, but the researchers are working to rectify that. While video evidence hasn’t been a sure thing for years, it’s always been significantly harder to fiddle with than still shots. With that barrier removed, we might be in for a whole new generation of video that lies and a reality we can none too sure of. Oh, and really good looking indie flicks. Sample vid is after the break.

Ah, Epic: the town bicycle. Microsoft wants to purchase them, EA wants to milk them, and Yahtzee wants to make sweet love to them. Well, with People Can Fly, anyway. Shurikens and lightning!

Anyway, Epic has signed on with EA to deliver some delicious new original IP via their sub-studio People Can Fly. With Gears of War providing a constant cash flow and the talented team behind Painkiller, I’m pretty sure EA has acquired itself a goose that lays golden eggs. I’m looking forward to seeing what they’ve got in store.
