5. The system of claim 4 , wherein:

the interface elements further include a direction-speed element;

the direction-speed element enables user selection of the selected moment within the progress length;

the video content is presented on the display; and

the selected moment within the progress length is determined to be a current moment of the video content presented on the display based on user interaction with the direction-speed element.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the user interaction with the timeline element to move the timeline representation causes the current moment of the video content presented on the display to be changed in the selected playback direction.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein a selected portion element is presented with the timeline representation to visually indicate the portion of the video content to which the selected playback direction and the selected playback speed are applied.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein a selected playback direction element is presented to visually indicate the selected playback direction for the portion of the video content and a selected playback speed element is presented to visually indicate the selected playback speed for the portion of the video content.

9. The system of claim 7 , wherein the speed ramp element is presented responsive to user selection of the selected portion element.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the curve representation of the selected speed ramp is manipulable to change the selected speed ramp for the portion of the video content.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the graphical user interface further includes a speed ramp bar element, the speed ramp bar element enabling the user selection of the speed ramp for the portion of the video content from different selectable speed ramps via positioning of a selector at different positions along the speed ramp bar element.

12. A method for presenting an interface for setting speed and direction of video playback, the method performed by a computing system including one or more processors, the method comprising:

obtaining, by the computing system, video information defining video content, the video content having a progress length;

presenting, by the computing system, a graphical user interface on a display, the graphical user interface including interface elements that facilitate selection of playback direction and playback speed for the video content, wherein the interface elements include a playback direction element, a playback speed element, a timeline element, and a speed ramp element, the playback direction element enabling user selection of the playback direction from a selected moment within the progress length, the playback speed element enabling user selection of the playback speed in the selected playback direction from the selected moment within the progress length, the timeline element including a timeline representation of the progress length and enabling user selection of a portion of the video content to which the selected playback direction and the selected playback speed are applied, the speed ramp element enabling user selection of speed ramp for the portion of the video content, wherein a speed ramp curve element is presented with the timeline representation to visually indicate the selected speed ramp for the portion of the video content, the speed ramp curve element including a curve representation of the selected speed ramp;

determining, by the computing system, the selected playback direction from the selected moment within the progress length based on user interaction with the playback direction element;

determining, by the computing system, the selected playback speed in the selected playback direction from the selected moment within the progress length based on user interaction with the playback speed element;

determining, by the computing system, the portion of the video content to which the selected playback direction and the selected playback speed are applied based on user interaction with the timeline element, the portion of the video content starting or ending with the selected moment within the progress length; and

applying, by the computing system, the selected playback direction and the selected playback speed to the portion of the video content to generate a presentation of the video content, the presentation of the video content including modification of the playback direction and the playback speed for the video content based on the selected playback direction and the selected playback speed for the portion of the video content.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the playback direction selectable via the playback direction element includes forward playback direction, reverse playback direction, and pause playback direction.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the portion of the video content to which the selected playback direction and the selected playback speed are applied is determined based on the user interaction with the timeline element to move the timeline representation.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the user interaction with the timeline element to move the timeline representation includes user interaction with the timeline element to drag the timeline representation.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein:

the interface elements further include a direction-speed element;

the direction-speed element enables user selection of the selected moment within the progress length;
