Abstract
A graphical user interface for trimming a video may include a timeline representation of a duration of the video. A trim duration for the video may be selected based on movement of the timeline representation. The amount of time represented by a portion of the timeline representation may be independent of the duration of the video. The movement of the timeline representation may correspond to moment through the duration of the video at a constant scale regardless of the duration of the video.
Claims17
A system for presenting an interface for trimming a video, the system comprising:
- one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
- present a graphical user interface and video content on a touchscreen display, the graphical user interface including interface elements and facilitating interaction of a user with one or more of the interface elements, wherein the interface elements include:
- a trim timeline element, the trim timeline element including a timeline representation of a video duration of the video content and enabling selection of a trim duration for the video content based on movement of the timeline representation;
- and
- a trim position element that stays fixed with respect to the trim timeline element during the movement of the timeline representation and represents a current time position of the video content, the trim position element including a trim duration setting element, the trim duration setting element enabling the user to set the current time position as a first end of the trim duration for the video content based on user interaction with the trim duration setting element;
- determine user interaction with the trim timeline element to move the timeline representation across the trim position element, wherein responsive to the user interaction with the trim timeline element moving the timeline representation to left of the trim position element, the first end of the trim duration set via the user interaction with the trim duration setting element is a beginning of the trim duration;
- and
- determine a length of the trim duration for the video content based on an amount by which the timeline representation is moved across the trim position element, wherein greater movement of the timeline representation across the trim position element results in a longer length of the trim duration and lesser movement of the timeline representation across the trim position element results in a shorter length of the trim duration.
A method for presenting an interface for trimming a video, the method performed by a computing system including one or more processors, the method comprising:
- presenting, by the computing system, a graphical user interface and video content on a touchscreen display, the graphical user interface including interface elements and facilitating interaction of a user with one or more of the interface elements, wherein the interface elements include:
- a trim timeline element, the trim timeline element including a timeline representation of a video duration of the video content and enabling selection of a trim duration for the video content based on movement of the timeline representation;
- and
- a trim position element that stays fixed with respect to the trim timeline element during the movement of the timeline representation and represents a current time position of the video content, the trim position element including a trim duration setting element, the trim duration setting element enabling the user to set the current time position as a first end of the trim duration for the video content based on user interaction with the trim duration setting element;
- determining, by the computing system, user interaction with the trim timeline element to move the timeline representation across the trim position element, wherein responsive to the user interaction with the trim timeline element moving the timeline representation to left of the trim position element, the first end of the trim duration set via the user interaction with the trim duration setting element is a beginning of the trim duration;
- and
- determining, by the computing system, a length of the trim duration for the video content based on an amount by which the timeline representation is moved across the trim position element, wherein greater movement of the timeline representation across the trim position element results in a longer length of the trim duration and lesser movement of the timeline representation across the trim position element results in a shorter length of the trim duration.

- a trim timeline element, the trim timeline element including a timeline representation of a video duration of the video content and enabling selection of a trim duration for the video content based on movement of the timeline representation;
- and
- a trim position element that stays fixed with respect to the trim timeline element during the movement of the timeline representation and represents a current time position of the video content, the trim position element including a trim duration setting element, the trim duration setting element enabling the user to set the current time position as a first end of the trim duration for the video content based on user interaction with the trim duration setting element and set a new current time position as a second end of the trim duration for the video content based on the user interaction with the trim duration setting element, wherein the setting of the first end of the trim duration and the second end of the trim duration fixes the trim duration;
- determine user interaction with the trim timeline element to move the timeline representation across the trim position element, wherein responsive to the user interaction with the trim timeline element moving the timeline representation to left of the trim position element, the first end of the trim duration set via the user interaction with the trim duration setting element is a beginning of the trim duration;
- and
- determine a length of the trim duration for the video content based on an amount by which the timeline representation is moved across the trim position element, wherein greater movement of the timeline representation across the trim position element results in a longer length of the trim duration and lesser movement of the timeline representation across the trim position element results in a shorter length of the trim duration.
