Abstract

A method of identifying a show in a video that has been filmed by a spectator's camera includes selecting a color set to identify the show, recording, in a database, a show identifier associated with a code for the color set, before the show is filmed, inserting, within a scene in which the show is performed, a display-panel set, causing the display-panel set to display the color set without considering scene lighting, thereby raising a likelihood that the camera will capture the displayed color set, once the camera has begun filming a video of the scene, causing a tracer to download an image of the video, to search within the image for the color set associated by the database with the show identifier, and to respond to finding the color set by identifying the filmed show with the aid of the show identifier.
