ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a system and method which allow for the automatic cropping and file generation of images from an existing image for display on multiple devices. An image, such as a video image, is provided to an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Next a mask or plurality of masks representative of different displays are applied to the image. The mask can be moved such that the content author can display an area of interest in the desired device. Once the mask is in place a crop is generated based on the mask. As frames are advanced the mask may be moved as the area of interest moves. Again a crop is made based on the mask. Once completed a file of the images is generated for each device represented by the mask that is displayable for the device.
