Abstract
A generation apparatus according to an embodiment includes an acquiring unit and a generating unit. The acquiring unit acquires information on usage of a moving image content used via a partial moving image that is used as a key image of the moving image content in a terminal device that is a distribution destination of the partial moving image. The generating unit generates a partial moving image corresponding to the moving image content on the basis of the information acquired by the acquiring unit.
Claims9
A server that composes moving thumbnails tailored to users, comprising:
- a communicator that:
- acquires information on usage of a moving image content corresponding to a first thumbnail used as a key image of the moving image content in a terminal device that is a distribution destination of the first thumbnail;
- and
- acquires a time point during the first thumbnail when the moving image content is requested;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- select a first portion of the moving image content corresponding to the time point;
- select a second portion of the moving image content based on the acquired information, the second portion of the moving image content being absent from the first thumbnail;
- and
- generate a new moving image thumbnail in which the second portion of the moving image content is played, and the first portion of the moving image content is played at a middle point or immediately after a start point of the new moving image thumbnail.
A method of composing moving thumbnails tailored to users, implemented by a computer, comprising:
- acquiring information on usage of a moving image content corresponding to a first thumbnail used as a key image of the moving image content in a terminal device that is a distribution destination of the first thumbnail;
- acquiring a time point during the first thumbnail when the moving image content is requested;
- selecting a first portion of the moving image content corresponding to the time point;
- selecting a second portion of the moving image content based on the acquired information, the second portion of the moving image content being absent from the first thumbnail;
- and
- generating, using the computer, a new moving image thumbnail in which the second portion of the moving image content is played, and the first portion of the moving image content is played at a middle point or immediately after a start point of the new moving image thumbnail.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored therein a generation program causing a computer to execute a process comprising:
- acquiring information on usage of a moving image content corresponding to a first thumbnail used as a key image of the moving image content in a terminal device that is a distribution destination of the first thumbnail;
- acquiring a time point during the first thumbnail when the moving image content is requested;
- selecting a first portion of the moving image content corresponding to the time point;
- selecting a second portion of the moving image content based on the acquired information, the second portion of the moving image content being absent from the first thumbnail;
- and
- generating a new moving image thumbnail in which the second portion of the moving image content is played, and the first portion of the moving image content is played at a middle point or immediately after a start point of the new moving image thumbnail.
