The described methods, systems, and computer program products enable media composition editors to tag compositional objects with editorial rendition rules that specify how rendering decisions are to be made and how source media assets are to be selected and processed to generate an output rendering of a media composition that adheres to the editor's rendition-related choices. The editorially-specified rendition rules include spatial-type rules, temporal-type rules, and color-type rules, and generally pertain to the spatial, temporal, and color ranges and resolutions to be included within a rendition. When a rendition of a media composition is to be generated, a rendition engine interprets and applies the editorial rendition rules to generate and output the rendition in accordance with rendition parameters supplied to the rendition engine by a rendition profile, and, in some cases, by the media composition and the source media assets.
