Techniques are disclosed for automatic scene detection and character extraction. In one example, audiovisual content with video frames, an audio recording, and timing information is received. A score, based on the frame's visual characteristics, is determined for a first frame and subsequent frames. The first frame's score and subsequent frame's scores are compared to determine if the difference between the scores is above a threshold. When the difference in scores is above a threshold, the subsequent frame is classified as a new scene. The audiovisual content is segmented into scenes and textual characters are identified in at least one frame from each scene. The characters are stored and indexed in a searchable database with the timing information for the scene where the characters were identified. The audio recording is transcribed and the transcribed words are stored and indexed in the searchable database with timing information.

A creative development platform includes an input interface that receives input data defining creative properties; a workflow definition store that stores creative generation workflow definitions defining a workflow related to generating a creative; a creative generation server, communicatively coupled to the workflow definitions store, to (i) receive the input data, (ii) retrieve at least one of the creative generation workflow definitions from the workflow definition store based on the input data, and (iii) generate the creative containing one or more media objects based on the input data and using the at least one workflow definition; and a network communications device operable to communicate the creative to target devices.

Systems and methods are presented herein for recording portions of a media asset relevant to recording criteria. A media application receives input indicating the recording criteria and identifying a first keyword. The media application accesses a data structure to identify a first node associated with the first keyword. The data structure includes the first node and a plurality of nodes connected to the first node via a plurality of paths. The media application receiving audio component data for a portion of the media asset extracts a term from the audio component data, and identifies a second node in the data structure that is associated with the extracted term. The media application calculates a path score for the portion of the media asset based on a path size in the data structure between the first node and the second node. When the score is high enough, the portion of the media asset is recorded.
