The third icon shows a frame from a TV broadcast. By clicking on the "filmstrip" icon in the bottom of the third icon, we bring up a "filmstrip" view of the story.

This filmstrip view summarizes the story at a glance. Every scene is depicted through one key frame. As the mouse moves over the key frames, words from the query that were found in the transcript pop up.

By clicking on a frame, we begin playing the news story video at that point.

For copyright reasons we have blurred the image and the closed-captioned text in this case. The system follows the currently spoken word by highlighting it in blue in the transcript window.
