  • Patent number: 11934774
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for generating a social asset from an electronic publication. The system includes providing a template having a set of reserve spaces for elements. The system receives an electronic publication containing elements including images and text passages. The system assigns images from the publication to each of the reserve spaces for images including assigning a first image from the publication to a first one of the reserve spaces for an image. The system chooses a first one of the text passages for associating with the first image. The system selects a portion of less than all of the first text passage. The system generates a social asset by processing the set of reserve spaces to automatically move forward in an animated manner wherein the selected portion of the first text passage superimposes a portion of the first image.
