3D user personalized media templates

摘要

In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a method for providing a user with three dimensional user personalized video. In some embodiments, the method includes providing, from a web server, a user with a selection of video clips stored in a database; receiving at the web server a selection of a video clip; receiving at the web server data from the user, wherein said data can be a plurality of symbols to personalize the video clip; rendering, using a rendering module, a three dimensional personalized video clip using the selected movie clip and the plurality of symbols; and providing, from the web server, the three dimensional personalized video clip to the user.

1. A method executed by a computer system operatively connected to a data network for generating data representing a video clip that is a customization of a pre-existing video clip, the method comprising:
retrieving from a database at least one pre-existing template video clip stored in a database, each of said template video clips being comprised of a set of frames, a predetermined sub-set of which are designated static frames and a predetermined sub-set of which are designated dynamic frames where the database is further comprised of a set of data elements corresponding to each video clip that specify for each video clip which of the set of frames are the static frames that are not modifiable and which frames are the dynamic frames that may be modified; transmitting from a web server to a computer operated by a user the at least one retrieved template video clip; receiving at the web server from the user's computer data representing a selection of one of the at least one template video clips; receiving at the web server customizing data from the user's computer, wherein said customizing data represents visual features usable to personalize the selected template video clip for the user; generating the customized video clip by determining a marked region within the dynamic frames to be used for incorporating the customizing data by reading data from a data file associated with the selected template video clip that defines the boundaries of the marked region; incorporating the customizing data into the video data within the marked region comprising the dynamic frames by deriving pixel data from the customizing data in dependence on a data file stored in memory representing a pre-determined geometric mapping from the customizing data to the marked region corresponding to the selected template video clip; replacing at least part of the pixel data in the dynamic frame that is within the marked region with the derived pixel data; and concatenating the modified dynamic frames with the static frames of the user's corresponding selected template video clip; storing in data memory the data representing the customized video clip.
