Electronic information defining visual content within video frames for playback may be accessed. The electronic information may be divided into electronic information parts defining separate temporal segments of the visual content. Headers may be generated and appended to the electronic information parts. The headers may include locators indicating locations of video frames in the electronic information parts. Two or more of the electronic information parts may be combined into combined electronic information. The combined electronic information may include a combine header. The combined header may include locators indicating locations of video frames in the combined electronic information.

In one aspect, an example method involves: accessing, by a computing system, data associated with an election; using, by the computing system, the accessed data to make a determination that a status of the election satisfies each condition in a condition set; based, at least in part, on the determination, selecting, by the computing system, a particular digital video-effect (DVE) template configured to facilitate generation of a DVE having a particular attribute; and executing, by the computing system, the selected DVE template, thereby causing the computing system to generate a video stream representing video content.

The technology disclosed herein includes a user interface for viewing and combining media items into a video. An example method includes presenting a user interface that displays media items in a first portion of the user interface; receiving user input in the first portion that comprises a selection of a first media item; upon receiving the user input, adding the first media item to a set of selected media items in a second portion of the user interface, and presenting a selectable control element in the second portion of the user interface, wherein the control element enables a user to initiate an operation pertaining to the creation of the video based on the set of selected media items, and creating the video based on video content of the set of selected media items.

A narrative presentation system may include at least one optical sensor capable of detecting objects added to the field-of-view of the at least one optical sensor. Using data contained in signals received from the at least one optical sensor, an adaptive narrative presentation circuit identifies an object added to the field-of-view and identifies an aspect of a narrative presentation logically associated with the identified object. The adaptive narrative presentation circuit modifies the aspect of the narrative presentation identified as logically associated with the identified object.
