Abstract: In some implementations, a user device can be configured to create media messages with automatic titling. For example, a user can create a media messaging project that includes multiple video clips. The video clips can be generated based on video data and/or audio data captured by the user device and/or based on pre-recorded video data and/or audio data obtained from various storage locations. When the user device captures the audio data for a clip, the user device can obtain a speech-to-text transcription of the audio data in near real time and present the transcription data (e.g., text) overlaid on the video data while the video data is being captured or presented by the user device.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for controlling the volume of an audio track. This method represents the volume of an audio track with a graph. This graph is defined along two axes, with one axis representing time and the other representing the volume level. A user can adjust the graph at different instances in time in order to change the volume level in the audio track at these instances. Different embodiments use different types of graphs to represent volume. For instance, some embodiments use a deformable line bar.

Abstract: A movie authoring process is disclosed which includes: selecting a theme, determining theme elements based on the theme selection, and adding the theme elements to a movie. An automated movie authoring process is also disclosed which includes: automatically capturing raw video footage from a video source; automatically dividing the raw video footage into video clips, wherein the video clips collectively constitute a movie; automatically determining one or more theme elements from a plurality of theme elements based on a selected theme; and automatically adding the one or more determined theme elements to the movie.
