The increasing interest in the effects of emotion on cognitive, social, and neural processes creates a constant need for efficient and reliable techniques for emotion elicitation. Emotions are important in many areas, especially in advertising design and video production. The impact of emotions on the audience plays an important role. This paper analyzes the physical elements in a two-dimensional emotion map by extracting the physical elements of a video (color, light intensity, sound, etc.). We used k-nearest neighbors (K-NN), support vector machine (SVM), and multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifiers in the machine learning method to accurately predict the four dimensions that express emotions, as well as summarize the relationship between the two-dimensional emotion space and physical elements when designing and producing video.
