Selective content insertion into areas of media objects

A computing device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• memory comprising processor-executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause performance of operations, the operations comprising:
• identifying a content feature of content;
• identifying criteria for pairing the content with media objects;
• querying a media object repository using the content feature and the criteria to identify a media object;
• assigning cost values to one or more portions of the media object based upon an occlusion criteria;
• evaluating the media object to identify an area within the media object into which the content can be added;
• and
• responsive to determining that the area of the media object has a total cost value below a threshold, automatically generating a composite media object by adding the content into the area.

A non-transitory machine readable medium having stored thereon processor-executable instructions that when executed cause performance of operations, the operations comprising:

• identifying a content feature of content;
• identifying criteria for pairing the content with media objects;
• querying a media object repository using the content feature and the criteria to identify a media object;
• assigning cost values to one or more image frames or audio samples of the media object based upon an occlusion criteria;
• identifying an area of the media object;
• and
• responsive to determining that the area of the media object has a total cost value below a threshold, automatically generating a composite media object by adding the content into the area.
