This disclosure describes a system configured to present primary and secondary, tertiary, etc., virtual reality content to a user. Primary virtual reality content may be displayed to a user, and, responsive to the user turning his view away from the primary virtual reality content, a sensory cue is provided to the user that indicates to the user that his view is no longer directed toward the primary virtual reality content, and secondary, tertiary, etc., virtual reality content may be displayed to the user. Primary virtual reality content may resume when the user returns his view to the primary virtual reality content. Primary virtual reality content may be adjusted based on a user's interaction with the secondary, tertiary, etc., virtual reality content. Secondary, tertiary, etc., virtual reality content may be adjusted based on a user's progression through the primary virtual reality content, or interaction with the primary virtual reality content.

Videos may be automatically generated using a set of video clip. Individual moments of interest may be identified within individual video clips of a set of video clips. A moment of interest may correspond to a point in time within a video clip. The point in time may be associated with one or more values of one or more attributes of the video clip. Individual moments of interest may be associated with individual portions of a video. The video may be generated using the set of video clips based on the associations.

A network editor comprises a central location with stored videos such as movies that can be edited by editors at remote locations. An editor receives a representation of a video and specifies edits relative to the representation, enabling the editor to use a device lacking sufficient processing capability to edit the video directly, and also reducing the volume of information transmitted between the central location and the remote editor. The central location is able to provide the edited movie in a format suitable to the display capabilities of the viewing device of the viewer requesting the edited video.

A method including: detecting a request for a first part of a video; detecting a request for a second part of the video, wherein the video has a video timeline and the second part of the video immediately follows the first part of the video in the video timeline; after detecting the request for the first part of the video and prior to detecting the request for the second part of the video, transmitting a request for a third part of the video, wherein the third part of the video follows the second part of the video in the video timeline; receiving the requested third part of the video; and storing the received third part of the video.

A video may include a capture of a scene, such as a wide-field of view capture of the scene. Context of the video may be assessed and used to suggest framing of the video.

Technologies for cloud-based media search and editing include a video editor configured to build a media query and associate the media query with a dynamic content slot of a media program. When generating video output based on the media program, the video editor transmits the media query to a cloud analytics server and receives 5 search results identifying one or more media clips produced by a number of mobile computing devices. The video editor may display a list of clips for selection by the user or may automatically include one of the clips in the output. The cloud analytics server transmits an acceptance policy defining criteria for acceptable media, based on the media query, to the mobile computing devices. The mobile computing devices configure 10 capture settings according to the acceptance policy and may display a user interface to assist the user in capturing acceptable media. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A method for generating a cyclic video sequence (SC), implemented by a data-processor (11). The method includes receiving a video sequence (S); determining a first singular point (P1) of the video sequence (S) in a first interval (11) of the sequence (S) and a second singular point (P2) of the video sequence (S) in a second interval (12) of the sequence (S). The first and second singular points (P1, P2) have a maximum similarity according to a given similarity criterion; then generating a connecting sequence (SR) between the image of the video sequence (S) corresponding to the second singular point (P2) and the image of the video sequence (S) corresponding to the first singular point (P1) by morphing then constructing the cyclic video sequence (SC) by concatenation of a fragment (S′) of the video sequence (S) extending from the first singular point (P1) to the second singular point (P2), and of the connecting sequence (SR).

A method for recording voice samples for video rendered on an electronic device including a display unit and a microphone. The video includes image data and voice data, and the voice data has one or more time intervals when the voice data is to be rendered with corresponding image data. The method is executed by a processor of the electronic device and includes displaying on the GUI a videoplayer element and a graphical or progress element representing progress of the video, the progress element including one or more selectable elements, each being associated to a time interval of the voice data and positioned on the progress element according to the time interval. When a user selection is received on a first selectable element, the microphone records sound data while the video player element is simulataneously played. The image data corresponds to the time interval associated to the first selectable element.
