TECHNICAL FIELD

The disclosed subject matter relates generally to video collaboration. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a system and computer-implemented method to create a composite video with parts from multiple creators added in at the right places to create a scripted or unscripted video.

BACKGROUND

Smart mobile technology has spread rapidly around the globe. Today, it is estimated that every person has a mobile device; as a result, photos and videos are used more and more frequently in ever-increasing number of applications as means for people to convey ideas. Social media sites and applications have grown in popularity. Some existing social media applications and short video platforms have duets, reactions, and stitch as features. Duets and reactions allow a creator to record a side-by-side video with another video to make a composite video. This is limited to one existing video and a new video recording being put together, where the creator may replicate or react to the existing video in their own video recording. However, the video stitching platform allows the creator manually select a portion of an existing video and adds their own video to it. Stitch is also restricted to using one existing video and adding one recording to it. Thus, there is a need to develop a new methodology to create a composite video with parts from multiple creators.

In the light of the aforementioned discussion, there exists a need for a certain system to create a composite video with parts from multiple creators on the computing devices with novel methodologies that would overcome the above-mentioned challenges.
