Abstract
A method and system for combining user-defined music, sound effects or other audio content selections with video or other media, an activity or an event experience. Music attributes are associated with music files. A user selects a music category. Video or other media are time segmented. Each segment is associated with the music attributes. Using a time clock, music in the user-selected category is combined with video for a personalized experience.
Claims21
A system for combining audio with additional media, activity or an entertainment experience comprising:
- a database of audio metadata attributes describing audio media files, the audio media files obtained from an audio media repository;
- a database of non-user selected soundtrack script metadata associated with a selection from an additional media, activity or entertainment experience repository;
- a trigger mechanism associated with segments of the additional media, activity or an entertainment experience;
- a user-driven software application configured for a user to define audio preferences;
- a processor configure to execute computer code to create a customized audio playlist by interpreting the user-defined audio preferences, soundtrack script metadata, audio metadata attributes and trigger mechanism information;
- a processor configured to execute computer code to combine the customized audio playlist, audio media files, media files, activity or entertainment experience and trigger mechanism information to generate audio combined with the additional media, activity or entertainment experience;
- and
- a device for presenting the audio combined with additional media, activity or entertainment experience and an audio selection based on the user-defined audio preferences, wherein the audio selection changes based on the trigger mechanism.
