Abstract
A video may include visual content having a progress length. A user may interact with a mobile device to set framings of the visual content at moments within the progress length. The framings of the visual content may be provided to a video editing application. The video editing application may utilize the framings set via the mobile device to provide preliminary framings of the visual content at the moments within the progress length.
Claims20
A system for video framing, the system comprising:
- one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
- obtain video information defining a video, the video including visual content viewable as a function of progress through a progress length of the video, the visual content having a field of view;
- determine framing information for the video based on a user's control of orientation of a mobile device during a presentation of the visual content on a display of the mobile device, the presentation of the visual content on the display including a presentation of extents of visual content on the display, the framing information characterizing framings of the visual content at moments within the progress length, an individual framing of the visual content defining a positioning of a viewing window within the field of view of the visual content at a corresponding moment within the progress length, wherein the orientation of the mobile device determines where the viewing window is positioned within the field of view of the visual content;
- and
- provide the framing information for the video to a video editing application for use in editing the video.
A method for video framing, the method performed by a computing system including one or more processors, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by the computing system, video information defining a video, the video including visual content viewable as a function of progress through a progress length of the video, the visual content having a field of view;
- determining, by the computing system, framing information for the video based on a user's control of orientation of a mobile device during a presentation of the visual content on a display of the mobile device, the presentation of the visual content on the display including a presentation of extents of visual content on the display, the framing information characterizing framings of the visual content at moments within the progress length, an individual framing of the visual content defining a positioning of a viewing window within the field of view of the visual content at a corresponding moment within the progress length, wherein the orientation of the mobile device determines where the viewing window is positioned within the field of view of the visual content;
- and
- providing, by the computing system, the framing information for the video to a video editing application for use in editing the video.
A system for video framing, the system comprising:
- one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
- obtain video information defining a spherical video, the spherical video including visual content viewable from a point of view as a function of progress through a progress length of the spherical video, the visual content having a spherical field of view;
- determine framing information for the spherical video based on a user's control of orientation of a mobile device during a presentation of the visual content on a display of the mobile device, the presentation of the visual content on the display including a presentation of extents of visual content on the display, the framing information characterizing framings of the visual content at moments within the progress length, an individual framing of the visual content defining a positioning of a viewing window within the spherical field of view of the visual content at a corresponding moment within the progress length, wherein the orientation of the mobile device determines where the viewing window is positioned within the spherical field of view of the visual content, wherein the user's interaction with the mobile device sets the framings of the visual content at adjacent moments and/or non-adjacent within the progress length of the spherical video;
- and
- provide the framing information for the spherical video to a video editing application for use in editing the spherical video.
