The motion of the camera in a video effectively conveys to the viewers the intention of the director, and is an essential element that enhances their interest. Therefore, detecting the motion of the camera is a very important factor in movie analysis. Existing research to detect the motion of the camera in a video has mainly focused on pan, tilt, and zoom. However, movies use more diverse camera motions to represent complex and varied emotions. Recognizing only pan, tilt, and zoom in a movie has limitations, especially not being able to detect lateral and longitudinal movements of the camera. In this study, a method is proposed to additionally detect boom and truck as well as pan, tilt, and zoom by using deep learning technology to improve this recognition ability. Thus, this study proposes the Improved Extractor of Camera Motion along with the CNN-Based Detector. The Improved Extractor of Camera Motion uses optical flow to extract camera motion vectors from video at eight-frame intervals. The CNN-Based Detector identifies five camera motions by using ResNet-152. As a result, the performance of our proposed method shows accuracy of 86.2%.
