Audio and video streaming for media effects

A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the steps of:

• receiving a request from a streaming device for content associated with a video effect;
• and
• in response, transmitting to the streaming device at least a portion of a first video stream associated with the video effect and at least a portion of a first fade-in audio stream associated with the video effect,
• wherein the fade-in audio stream includes a modulated portion and a second portion, the second portion having volume levels that substantially match volume levels corresponding to an original audio stream that is associated with the video effect, and the modulated portion having volume levels that begin with a lowest volume level, increase across a fade-in envelope, and match a volume level corresponding to the original audio stream at a first point in time that delineates the end of the modulated portion and the start of the second portion.

A computing device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that stores an audio effect generator that is configured to generate at least a portion a first fade-in audio stream associated with a video effect,
• wherein the fade-in audio stream includes a modulated portion and a second portion, the second portion having volume levels that substantially match volume levels corresponding to an original audio stream that is associated with the video effect, and the modulated portion having volume levels that begin with a lowest volume level, increase across a fade-in envelope, and match a volume level corresponding to the original audio stream at a first point in time that delineates the end of the modulated portion and the start of the second portion.
