Abstract: A video content distribution and management system is provided that comprises an event content recorder recording video content associated with an event as an event recording. A workstation stores and edits the event recording to form a composite event review file that is passed to a system manager over a restricted access network. The workstation is located remote from a system manager. The system manager automatically routes the composite event review file to the workstation which enables a user to designate a video segment from the composite event review file. The workstation forms a video clip from the video segment and enables the user to add annotation information to the video clip to form an annotated video clip. The workstation conveys the annotated video clip to the system manager for redistribution.
