Abstract
Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for providing access to a portion of a video to a requesting user. For example, a computer can receive an identification of a video, a starting point of a clip within the video, and an ending point of the clip within the video from a rights holder. The computer can define a video clip based on the identified video, the starting point, and the ending point. The computer can also provide a link by which a requesting user is provided access to the video clip.
