Disclosed are a video generation method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer readable medium. A specific embodiment of the method comprises: obtaining a video footage and an audio footage, the video footage comprising a picture footage; determining a music point of the audio footage, the music point being used for dividing the audio footage into a plurality of audio clips; using the video footage to generate a video clip for each music clip in the audio footage to obtain a plurality of video clips, corresponding music clips and video clips having the same duration; and splicing the plurality of video clips according to the time when music clips respectively corresponding to the plurality of video clips appear in the audio footage, and adding the audio footage as a video audio signal to obtain a composite video.

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for selective content insertion into areas of media objects are provided. For example, a media object (e.g., an image or video), is selected for composition with content, such as where a message, interactive content, a hyperlink, or other types of content is overlaid or embedded into the media object to create a composite media object. The content is added into an area of the media object that is selectively identified to reduce occlusion and/or improve visual cohesiveness between the content and the media object (e.g., added to an area with a similar or complimentary color, having an adequate size with spare amounts of visual features such as a soccer player, a ball, or other entity, etc.). In this way, the content may be add into the area of the media object to create a composite media object to provide to users.

Methods, systems, and media for generating a summarized video using frame rate modification are provided. In some embodiments, a method for editing a video is provided, the method comprising: receiving, using a hardware processor, a video file; identifying a plurality of frames at a playback frame rate from the video file; generating an edited video file by extracting a subset of the plurality of frames, wherein the extracted frames in the subset of the plurality of frames are separated by a predetermined length in the plurality of frames and wherein extracting the subset of the plurality frames modifies a frame rate of at least a portion of the video file to an effective frame rate; storing the edited video file; and presenting the edited video file at the playback frame rate.

Disclosed are a method, an apparatus and a smart mobile terminal for editing a video. The method includes: acquiring an editing instruction to be executed of a user; selecting frame images which indicate a duration of a video segment in a preset showing area based on the editing instruction; storing the video segment in a preset second storage area; storing a reserved video segment in a preset first storage area; rendering the frame images by invoking a preset rendering script for highlighting the frame images in the showing area; retrieving frames of the reserved video segment sequentially based on a preset first time span; determining scaled frames based on a preset scaling proportion and the frames; and arranging the scaled frames in the showing area sequentially in an order of retrieving for displaying frame images which indicates a duration of the reserved video segment in the showing area.

A multimedia compositing method comprises selecting, from a plurality of video clip templates stored in a database of the computing system, a first video clip template that includes frames that depict a first object template moving in a first manner. The method further includes selecting, from a plurality of static images stored in the database of the computing system, a first static image that depicts a surface of a first object associated with the first object template; and overlaying the first static image over the first object template depicted in the first video clip template, respectively, to thereby provide a first rendered video clip associated with the first video clip template that includes frames that depict the first object moving in the particular manner.

Methods, apparatus and systems related to production of a movie, a TV show or a multimedia content are described. In one example aspect, a system for producing a multimedia digital content includes a pre-production subsystem configured to receive information about a storyline, cameras, cast, and other assets for the content from a user. The pre-production subsystem is configured to generate one or more machine-readable scripts that include information about one or more advertisements. The system includes a production subsystem configured to receive the one or more machine-readable scripts from the pre-production system to obtain a footage according to the storyline. The production subsystem is further configured to embed one or markers corresponding to the one or more advertisements in the footage. The system also includes a post-production editing subsystem configured to detect the one or more markers embedded in the footage and replace each of the one or more markers with a corresponding advertising target.
