A method of selecting key-frames (230) from a video sequence (210, 215) by comparing each frame in the video sequence with respect to its preceding and subsequent key-frames for redundancy where the comparison involves region and motion analysis. The video sequence is optionally pre-processed to detect graphic overlay. The key-frame set is optionally post-processed (250) to optimize the resulting set for face or other object recognition.
