Abstract: A distributed computer system including a story application for a mobile computing device enables generation, presentation, and sharing of media using the device. Under control of a programmed story script, the story application invokes a camera of the device for recording a clip during an iteration for a character in a story while presenting a story script in a teleprompter manner. A clip for each different character in the story may be received to be combined therewith and presented as a scene on mobile computing device for viewing. Another iteration for the character may be recorded, and a resulting new clip may be combined with the clips for the other characters, or with different clips for the other characters, to generate another scene for the story script. Media presentations of the same story include multiple scenes each having a different interpretation. Scenes and/or clips may be shared using different applications.
