Abstract
Systems and methods described in this application are directed to creating interactive stories using static 360-degree environments with dynamic sprites displayed thereon. These techniques facilitate creation of gamified storytelling and improve on prior efforts to create an immersive experience. Some embodiments described in this application are directed to creating video clips with assistance to improve continuity between clips while other embodiments are directed to transitioning between those clips in the course of presenting an interactive story to a user.
Claims15
A method of facilitating video transitions, the method comprising:
- initiating, on a user device, playback of a first video, the first video comprising a first video transition frame;
- identifying, by the user device, a set of idle videos to which the first video can transition, wherein idle videos in the set of idle videos are identified at least according to the first video transition frame;
- upon completing playback of the first video, initiating, on the user device, playback of an idle video from the set of idle videos;
- identifying, by the user device, a set of subsequent videos at least based on the idle video metadata;
- while the idle video is playing, receiving a user response via the user device;
- and
- upon completing playback of the idle video, initiating playback of a subsequent video from the set of subsequent videos.
A method of facilitating video transitions, the method comprising:
- initiating, on a user device, playback of a first video, the first video comprising a first video transition frame;
- identifying, by a server, a set of idle videos to which the first video can transition, wherein idle videos in the set of idle videos are identified at least according to the first video transition frame;
- on the user device, upon completing playback of the first video, initiating playback of an idle video from the set of idle videos;
- identifying, by the server, a set of subsequent videos at least based on the idle video metadata;
- while the idle video is playing, receiving, at the server, a user response via the user device;
- and
- upon completing playback of the idle video, initiating, on the user device, playback of a subsequent video from the set of subsequent videos.
