Systems and methods for automating video reformatting

A system comprising:

• a detection module, stored in memory, that detects a command to clip a video segment from a video stream;
• an extraction module, stored in memory, that extracts the video segment from the video stream based on the command;
• an identification module, stored in memory, that automatically identifies at least one point of interest in the video segment;
• a determination module, stored in memory, that determines at least one set of coordinates to crop the video segment based on a predetermined aspect ratio and the at least one point of interest;
• a creation module, stored in memory, that creates a short-form video by cropping and reformatting the video segment based on the at least one set of coordinates, wherein creating comprises (i) overlaying a cropped video segment of the at least one point of interest over a portion of a cropped video segment of a second point of interest, and at least one of (ii) adjusting a size of the cropped video segment of the at least one point of interest, or adjusting a position of the cropped video segment of the at least one point of interest;
• and
• at least one processor that executes the detection module, the extraction module, the identification module, the determination module, and the creation module.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising one or more computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing device, cause the computing device to:

• detect, by the computing device, a command to clip a video segment from a video stream;
• extract, by the computing device, the video segment from the video stream based on the command;
• automatically identify, by the computing device, at least one point of interest in the video segment;
• determine, by the computing device, at least one set of coordinates to crop the video segment based on a predetermined aspect ratio and the at least one point of interest;
• and
• create, by the computing device, a short-form video by cropping and reformatting the video segment based on the at least one set of coordinates, wherein creating comprises (i) overlaying a cropped video segment of the at least one point of interest over a portion of a cropped video segment of a second point of interest, and at least one of (ii) adjusting a size of the cropped video segment of the at least one point of interest, or adjusting a position of the cropped video segment of the at least one point of interest.
