Abstract
The advances in the data capturing, storage, and connnunication technologies have made vast
amounts of video data available to consumer and enterprise applications. However, interacting
with multimedia data, and video in particular, requires more than connecting with data banks and
delivering data via networks to customers' homes or offices. Still there are limited tools and
applications to describe, organize, and manage video data. The fundamental approach is to index
video data and make it a structured media. Manually generating video content description is time
consuming and thus more costly to the point that it's almost impossible. Moreover, when
available, it's subjective, inaccurate, and incomplete.
This research sought out to design a system for Movie Land Entertainment Limited to
computerize the manual based system currently in place. The system would be able to offer
automatic content-based indexing of videos in the company and will act as data repository for
easing the renting process.
The research used Object Oriented methodology to conduct the research. Data collection was
done tlu·ough interview, observation and questionnaire, the data was analyzed to come up with
the required information to develop the system. The research used PHP and Dreamweaver to
design the interface and MySQL to design the database.
The research came up with a full operational rental system which can be implemented to Movie
land Entertainment Limited for a computerized system.
The researcher reconnnends that the system be implemented and the users of the system be
trained so that they can operate efficiently and further upgrade of the system so that it can
interact with clients and able to contain digital movies online.
