20120096357 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MEDIA SELECTION AND SHARING - A method and system for media selection and sharing is disclosed. According to one embodiment, media content is received from a media source and is stored in a buffer for a first time period. A second time period within the first time period is determined for creating a media clip from the media content stored in the buffer. A media clip is generated as determined by the second time period. A user provides an input, and the user's input is associated with the media clip to take one or more effects on the media clip. The media clip enhanced with the one more effects is transmitted over a network to share with other users. | 04-19-2012 |
20120198338 | Smart Transitions - A method, system and computer-readable storage medium for performing smart transitions between video clips are disclosed. According to implementations, a first video clip can be displayed on an interface of a video editing application. A second video clip can be received in the interface. In response to receiving the second video clip, a video clip sequence that includes the first video clip, the second video clip and a transition selected based on content characteristics of the first video clip and the second video clip can be generated. The generated video clip sequence containing the transition can be displayed on the interface. The video clip sequence including the transition can be generated automatically in response to receiving the second video clip. | 08-02-2012 |
20140344700 | VIDEO MIXING METHOD AND SYSTEM - A video mixing computer apparatus includes a computing device, a touch interface having multiple selectable tiles, at least some of the tiles each having an associated media viewer capable of playing a visual source in response to selection of the tile. The compositing engine, tiles, media viewers, and compositing engine interoperate such that, when a user selects a first tile, a part of a first visual source will be played by a first media player, and when the user then selects a second tile, a part of a second visual source will be played by a second media player, and concurrent with the playing, information relating to the parts will be captured for use by the compositing engine to create a media file as a sequential mix of the first and second visual sources corresponding to the user's selections' timings and durations. A video mixing method is also described. | 11-20-2014 |
20150074535 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENHANCING DIGITAL VIDEO EFFECTS (DVE) - A method and apparatus for enhancing digital video effects (DVE) operates to embed DVE functionality within a graphics modeling system and provides the user with an interface configured to present model elements to a user as controllable parameters. In order to embed DVE functionality, a dynamic data structure is introduced as a scene to allow the addition of user defined model elements. The user interface enables the identification of, and access to the newly introduced model elements. | 03-12-2015 |
20150113408 | AUTOMATIC CUSTOM SOUND EFFECTS FOR GRAPHICAL ELEMENTS - A method of automatically adding sound effects for graphical elements is provided. The method analyzes a set of properties of a graphical element. The method selects a set of sound effects clips based on the analysis of the graphical element properties. The method identifies the starting time of each sound effects clip in the selected set of sound effects clips based on the analysis of the graphical element. The method adjusts the duration of each sound effects clip in the set of sound effects clips based on the properties of the graphical element. The method schedules the selected set of sound effects clips for play back. The analyzing, selecting, identifying, and adjusting operations are performed without human intervention. | 04-23-2015 |
20150339010 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING VIDEOS WITH OVERLAYS - A computer implemented method of producing videos with overlays. A user creates a video and various overlays to be applied to the video. The user selects predetermined time frames for the overlays to be provided. The system automatically generates the resulting video with the selected overlays at the predetermined time frames. | 11-26-2015 |
20150378584 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MEDIA SELECTION AND SHARING - A method and system for media selection and sharing is disclosed. According to one embodiment, media content is received from a media source and is stored in a buffer for a first time period. A second time period within the first time period is determined for creating a media clip from the media content stored in the buffer. A media clip is generated as determined by the second time period. A user provides an input, and the user's input is associated with the media clip to take one or more effects on the media clip. The media clip enhanced with the one more effects is transmitted over a network to share with other users. | 12-31-2015 |
