In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific value should be construed as exemplary only and not as limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiment may have different values.
It should be noted that: similar reference numbers and letters refer to similar items in the following drawings, and thus, once a certain item is defined in one drawing, it need not be discussed further in subsequent drawings.
As previously described, the preview of the video template and the upload of the media material are implemented separately, that is, the two functions are put in two scenarios and not combined together. This results in the unclear distribution of the media materials contained in the video template, so that the characteristics of the video template cannot be clearly presented.
According to the present disclosure, the preview of the video template and the upload of the media materials are combined in one scenario to be implemented, which helps to better and conveniently understood the structural characteristics of the video template, thereby improving the effect of the video generated by the user according to the video template.
For example, the technical solutions of the present disclosure can be implemented by the following embodiments.
As shown in
In step 120, an interactive operation of a user for the video is received.
In step 130, in response to the interactive operation of the user for the video in the media stream, a material presentation page of the video is entered. For example, the material presentation page comprises a material presentation area for presenting related information of a plurality of first media materials, and a playback area for playing back the video.
For example, the material presentation page comprises a playback area for playing back the video.
For example, the user is viewing a certain video in a pushed video stream, and by clicking a specified control on the video playback page, the user can enter a material presentation page for a video template adopted by the video. In this way, the user can, when viewing the video, quickly and clearly know formation and structure of the video template adopted by the video, thereby conveniently creating the video based on the video template of the video and improving the effect of the video creation function.
In step 140, at least one material presentation area on the material presentation page is presented, the at least one material presentation area comprising related information of a plurality of first media materials forming the video. For example, the related information comprises at least one of a number, a duration, or an arrangement order of the first media materials.
As shown in
In some embodiments, in a material presentation area 21 of the material presentation page, a plurality of first controls are presented, each of the plurality of first control corresponding to one of the plurality of first media materials. For example, the plurality of first controls are arranged in an order in which the plurality of first media materials are played back in the video. For example, related information of a corresponding first media material can be presented on the first control.
For example, the first controls for replacing the media materials are sequentially displayed in an order of the media materials in a video template corresponding to the video.
In some embodiments, in response to the video being played back to a current first media material 221 of the video in the playback area 22 of the material presentation page, a first control 211 corresponding to the current first media material 221 is indicated by using a specified display mode. For example, a cursor 210 is positioned onto the first control 211 corresponding to the current first media material 221.
For example, as the video is played back, a position of the current first control or a position of the cursor is switched following the video playback progress.
In some embodiments, in the case where all of the first controls cannot be presented in the at least one material presentation area 21, the user may perform an interactive operation (e.g., swipe left/right, or clicking a corresponding control), to display, in the at least one material presentation area 21, a first control that cannot be currently displayed.
For example, in the case where there are a large number of first controls, all of the first controls may be viewed by a swipe left/right operation. While the swipe operation is performed, the video playback progress changes following the swipe operation; and the cursor may also move following the swipe operation.
As shown in
For example, in the case where the user swipes horizontally (i.e., starts swipe) in an area where the first control is located, the playback of the video is paused. In the case where the user releases his hand (i.e., stops swipe), the playback progress is anchored to a target first control selected by the cursor and a video playback state (continuing the playback or remaining the pause) before the swipe starts is kept.
In some embodiments, in the case where the video is being played back in the playback area 22 of the material presentation page, in response to the interactive operation of the user on the target first control 212, the playback of the video is paused; and in the playback area 22, starting from the first media material 222 corresponding to the target first control 212, the playback of the video is continued.
For example, in response to the user starting a swipe operation from the current first control 211, the playback of the video is paused; and in response to the user ending the swipe operation at the target first control 212, the playback of the video is continued. For example, if the video is played back, when the user performs an operation such as drag in an area where the first control is located, the playback of the video is paused; and when the user releases his hand, the playback of the video is continued.
In some embodiments, in the case where the playback of the video is paused in the playback area 22 of the material presentation page, in response to the interactive operation of the user on the target first control 212, the playback progress in the playback area 22 is paused at the first media material 222 corresponding to the target first control 212. For example, if the current playback of the video is paused, when the user performs an operation such as drag in an area where the first control is located, pausing the playback of the video is continued; and when the user releases his hand, continuing to pause the playback of the video.
For example, in response to the user ending the swipe operation at the target first control 212, the playback progress is paused at the first media material 222 corresponding to the target first control 212.
In some embodiments, a previous page (e.g., the video playback page in the video stream) may be returned to by selecting a return function (e.g., clicking a close button in an upper left corner of the material presentation page).
In some embodiments, the user may enter a filling-material stage by clicking a control 23 on the bottom of the material presentation page or clicking a symbol (e.g., a plus symbol, etc.) on the first control. For example, an upload button on the bottom of the page or a plus symbol on the first control is clicked to open an album page of the user; and the user may select or shoot a media material to insert the media material into the video template.
As shown in
For example, after an album page of the user is opened, media materials in the album are ordered by time (e.g., from latest to earliest); and a camera entry 320 may also be displayed on the album page, for triggering a shooting function.
In some embodiments, in response to the user selecting, on the material presentation page, a material upload function by a first control (e.g., the first control 212) corresponding to any first media material, the material upload page is entered, on which the user is instructed to select a second media material corresponding to related information of any first media material 222.
For example, the material upload page comprises a second control 312 corresponding to the first control 212. In response to the user selecting the material upload function on the first control 212, a cursor 310 is positioned onto the second control 312 corresponding to the first control 212.
For example, if the user enters an album page by clicking a first control in the material presentation page, the cursor is, on the material upload page, anchored to a position of a second control corresponding to the first control.
In some embodiments, in response to the user selecting, on the material presentation page, the material upload function by a third control 23, the material upload page is entered. For example, the third control 23 has no correspondence with the plurality of first media materials. The user is, on the material upload page, instructed to select in order the second media materials corresponding to the related information of the plurality of first media materials; and generate the to-be-released video based on a selection order of the second media materials.
For example, the material upload page comprises a plurality of second controls corresponding to the plurality of first media materials. The cursor 310 is moved onto the second control 312 corresponding to the current first media material (i.e., the first media material 222).
For example, if the user enters the album page by clicking an upload button on the bottom of the material presentation page, the cursor is, on the material upload page, anchored to a unfilled second control arranged in a first place among the unfilled second controls.
In some embodiments, by clicking an existing media material in an album on the album page, the user may insert the existing media material into the selected second control.
For example, by clicking any media material, the user may preview or select the media material. If a circle control at an upper right corner of a media material is clicked, the media material is selected, and the color of the circle control will change; and if an area outside the circle control on the media material is clicked, the media material is previewed.
For example, after any media material is selected by clicking, the selected media material is inserted into the second control currently selected by the cursor, and then the cursor is moved to a next blank second control in order.
In some embodiments, in the case where a duration of the selected second media material 322 is not matched with a duration of the corresponding first media material 222, the selected second media material 322 is processed so that a duration of the selected second media material 322 processed is matched with the duration of the corresponding first media material 222.
For example, in the case where the selected second media material 322 is a video material and the duration thereof is less than that of the corresponding first media material 222, the video material is subjected to slow-playback processing, so that a duration of the video material subjected to the slow-playback processing is equal to that of the corresponding first media material 222.
For example, in the case where the selected second media material 322 is a video material and the duration thereof is greater than that of the corresponding first media material, the video material is subjected to interception processing, so that a duration of the video material subjected to the interception processing is equal to that of the corresponding first media material 222.
For example, in the case where the selected second media material 322 is a video material and the duration thereof is greater than that of the corresponding first media material 222, in response to the user selecting a material editing control, an editing page is displayed; and the video material is subjected to interception processing according to a clip of the video material selected by the user on the editing page.
For example, in the case where the selected second media material 321 is a picture material, a display time of the picture material is set to the duration of the corresponding first media material 221.
For example, if a duration of a filled second media material is not matched with a duration of the first media material corresponding to the second control, when the duration of the second media material is less than that of the first media material, the second media material is uniformly slowed down to adapt to the duration of the first media material; when the duration of the second media material is greater than that of the first media material, a playback speed of the second media material is kept unchanged, and first few seconds (or first few minutes) of the second media material with a duration equal to that of the first media material is selected; when the second media material is a picture, its display duration is directly matched with the duration of the second media.
For example, in response to the user clicking an unfilled second control, the cursor is moved to the second control to fill it with the second media material. After all of the second controls are filled, the album page is set to gray (i.e., set to be non-interactable) in whole, so that in this case, the second media material may no longer be newly added and the cursor is no longer displayed.
In some embodiments, by clicking the camera entry 320, the page may jump to a shoot page of a camera to shoot the second media material for insertion into the selected second control.
For example, after the shoot page is entered, accompanying music of a first media material corresponding to the selected second control is brought into the page at the same time, and the accompanying music is set to gray and is irreplaceable.
For example, various shoot functions (e.g., filtering, parameter adjustment, and the like) that are originally present in the shoot page may be retained.
In some embodiments, by clicking a shoot button, shoot of the second media material starts. Only the shoot of the second media material having a duration corresponding to a duration (duration upper limit) of the second control may be supported. For example, after the shoot starts, the user cannot click the shoot button again to pause the shoot, and until the duration upper limit of the shoot is reached, the shoot is automatically interrupted; the current page stays on the shoot page and the shot second media material is circularly played back in the shoot page; after the shoot is finished, the user can click re-shoot or insert the shot second media material into the second control; if a re-shoot control is clicked, return to the above shooting process; and if a confirm control is clicked, return to the album page, and the currently shot second media material is inserted into the second control.
In some embodiments, the second media material that has already been inserted into the second control may be deleted. For example, a selection button (e.g., a circle in
In some embodiments, a playback interval of the selected second media material may be adjusted. For example, in the case where the duration of the selected second media material is greater than a duration corresponding to the second control, a material editing button is displayed on the second control; the material editing button or the selected second media material is clicked to enter an editing page, to adjust the playback interval.
For example, a complete track of the second media material may be presented in the editing page, to play back selected clips in a selection box circularly; by dragging leftward/rightward the selection box, a selected playback interval can be switched.
In some embodiments, in response to the user confirming (e.g., perform an interactive operation on the control 33), on the material upload page, a plurality of specified second media materials (e.g., second media material 321, 322, etc.) corresponding to the related information of the plurality of first media materials, it is prompted in an area 31 where the plurality of second controls are located that the plurality of specified second media materials are being uploaded.
For example, display brightness of thumbnails of the plurality of specified second media materials in the area where the plurality of second controls are located is changed, to prompt that the plurality of specified second media materials are being uploaded. For example, the thumbnails may be highlighted in an arrangement order.
For example, in response to the user clicking a next button, it is determined whether all the current second controls are filled with the second media material; if all the second controls have not been completely filled yet, the user is, through a message box (such as a toast prompt), prompted not to be allowed to enter a next step; and if all the second controls have been filled, a special effect for prompting the user that the loading is in progress is presented, and the next step is entered to preview a generated video.
