Method and system for generating a smart time-lapse video clip

An electronic device, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing one or more programs to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:
• detecting a first user input selecting a portion of the event timeline, wherein the selected portion of the event timeline includes a subset of the plurality of event indicators on the event timeline;
• in response to the first user input, causing generation of a time-lapse video clip of the selected portion of the event timeline;
• and
• displaying the time-lapse video clip of the selected portion of the event timeline, including automatically playing the motion events previously detected by the camera and corresponding to the subset of the plurality of event indicators at a slower speed than the remainder of the selected portion of the event timeline.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which, when executed by an electronic device with one or more processors, cause the electronic device to perform operations comprising:

• detecting a first user input selecting a portion of the event timeline, wherein the selected portion of the event timeline includes a subset of the plurality of event indicators on the event timeline;
• in response to the first user input, causing generation of a time-lapse video clip of the selected portion of the event timeline;
• and
• displaying the time-lapse video clip of the selected portion of the event timeline, including automatically playing the motion events previously detected by the camera and corresponding to the subset of the plurality of event indicators at a slower speed than the remainder of the selected portion of the event timeline.
