Abstract: Choreographed avatar movement and control methods, systems and computer program products for the same, the method comprising associating M1 animation segments, for animating an avatar, to M1 corresponding animation cards in a first animation deck virtually implemented over a video game platform; associating M2 animation segments, for animating the avatar, to M2 corresponding animation cards in a second animation deck virtually implemented over the video game platform; and providing N animation decks for selection, the N animation decks comprising the first animation deck and the second animation deck. Transitioning between animation cards in one or more animation decks, wherein the transitioning results in rendering of one or more animation segments associated with selected animation cards as applied to the avatar, such that timing of the transitioning in synchronization with audio being played during the transitioning is a factor in determining a score for the avatar being animated.

Abstract: A server determines whether a the stored on a computing device matches a file stored on the server by comparing hash values for a first portion of the files. Based on the comparing, the server determines whether to upload the first portion of the file. The server uploads second portion of the file. The server generates the file for download by appending the first portion of the file stored on the server to the second portion of the file uploaded from the computing device.
