Abstract: One variation of a method for prioritizing content pieces within a content gallery comprises: providing a content gallery comprising a plurality of content pieces to a plurality of users, wherein each content piece from the plurality of content pieces is associated with one or more tags and one or more respective tag scores associated with the one or more tags; receiving, through a graphical user interface (GUI) of the content gallery, a search term related to a first tag; retrieving at least a first content piece and a second content piece associated with the first tag from the plurality of content pieces; and displaying, within the GUI of the content gallery, the first and second content pieces within a list of search results, wherein the first and second content pieces are prioritized in descending order of tag score associated with the first tag.

Abstract: One variation of a method for autonomously generating an optimized audio-visual (AV) file from an original AV file comprises: a) generating a vector cube comprising a plurality of vector matrices for an original AV file; b) for each vector matrix within the vector cube, determining an optimal subframe having a subframe size larger than or equal to a predetermined minimum subframe size; and c) generating an optimized AV file based on the optimal subframes determined for each of the vector matrices within the vector cube.

Abstract: This application pertains to gift-giving and video-dropping methods and systems. A gift drop or a video drop is facilitated using a mobile smart device and an interactive map. The system includes a gift or video drop database stored in a remote gift drop computer server. The system includes a gift or video drop logic section operable on a smart mobile device or a computer. The gift or video drop logic section includes an interactive gift or video drop map. The gift or video drop logic section presents the interactive gift or video drop map to a user, and facilitates the dropping of a symbolic gift item or a video onto the interactive map. The gift or video drop logic section determines whether the user is within certain predefined geographic boundaries, and either makes visible or gives a symbolic gift item to the user based on their location, or plays the video.

Abstract: One variation of a method comprises: a) One variation of a method comprises: detecting a first selection, by a digital media consumer, of a first digital media frame generated for a first digital media asset and presented within a graphical user interface (GUI) of a first web gallery in a locked state; b) deducting a first amount of media credits equal to a first media credit value established for the first digital media asset from a media credit account associated with the digital media consumer; and c) in response to detecting the first selection of the first digital media frame and successfully deducting the first amount of media credits equal to the first media credit value from the media credit account associated with the digital media consumer, unlocking the first digital media frame to provide the digital media consumer with access to the first digital media asset.
