  • Patent number: 12260880
    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can guide a user of the computing device through creation of media content using storyboard templates. For example, the user may invoke a media editing application on the computing device. The media editing application can be configured with a plurality of different storyboard templates to be used for the creation of different types or categories of content. A storyboard template corresponding to a particular type of content can include suggested media segments and suggested media clips for the particular type, or topic, of content. Thus, a particular storyboard template can include suggested media segments and suggested media clips that are different from other storyboard templates. The media editing application can include features that allow the user to edit the storyboard template and/or the media content corresponding to a storyboard project created by the user.

  • Publication number: 20240404496
    Abstract: The embodiments set forth techniques for implementing a sing-along session. According to some embodiments, the techniques can be implemented by a computing device, and include the steps of (1) receiving audio feed content from at least one microphone, (2) receiving audio content that includes metadata that describes a plurality of characteristics of the audio content, (3) generating audio output content that is based on the audio feed content and the audio content, (4) receiving video feed content from at least one camera, (5) generating video output content that is based on: the video feed content, and the audio content and/or at least one characteristic of the plurality of characteristics of the audio content, and (6) outputting, to a media playback system: the audio output content, and the video output content.

  • Patent number: 8806339
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) on a first device for controlling application of color corrections to a media item by a media editing application on a second device. The method provides a display area that includes several different locations. Each location in the display area corresponds to a set of values. The method provides several user interface (UI) items that are each for (1) moving in the display area and (2) specifying a set of values for a color correction operation that the media editing application applies to the media item. The set of values for the color correction operation specified by each UI item is the set of values is associated with the location at which the UI item is positioned in the display area.
