Abstract

The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for ranking media effects. For example, systems and methods described herein enable a user to select and apply one or more media effects to a media communication such as a digital photograph or video. Systems and methods described herein identify and rank media effects based on characteristics associated with the user and the user's client-computing device. Furthermore, systems and methods described herein automatically present the top-ranked media effects to the user such that the user can easily select and apply one or more media effects that are tailored specifically to the user.

Claims (40)

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:

analyzing, by at least one processor, landscape content depicted within a camera viewfinder display associated with a client device;

determining, by the at least one processor, a location associated with a client device;

generating, by the at least one processor, a media effect ranking by ranking a plurality of media effects for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display according to respective compatibilities in relation to the landscape content depicted within the camera viewfinder display and the location associated with the client device;

determining, by the at least one processor, a media effect from the plurality of media effects for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display utilizing the media effect ranking; and

presenting, by the at least one processor, the media effect for display together with the landscape content within the camera viewfinder display.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising identifying a landscape media effect from a repository of media effects stored at a database for the plurality of media effects.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting the media effect for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display based on user interaction selecting the media effect from the media effect ranking for the plurality of media effects compatible with the landscape content.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising presenting the media effect for display together with the landscape content within the camera viewfinder display by automatically overlaying a top-ranked media effect on the camera viewfinder display from the media effect ranking.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising determining a landscape media effect specific to the location associated with the client device for the plurality of media effects.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein presenting the media effect for display together with the landscape content comprises providing the media effect for display on the client device as an overlay of the landscape content depicted within the camera viewfinder display.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising determining that the camera viewfinder display is depicting the landscape content by identifying the subject matter presented within the camera viewfinder display as landscape content.

8. A system comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:

analyze, by at least one processor, landscape content depicted within a camera viewfinder display associated with a client device;

determine, by the at least one processor, a location associated with a client device;

generate, by the at least one processor, a media effect ranking by ranking a plurality of media effects for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display according to respective compatibilities in relation to the landscape content depicted within the camera viewfinder display and the location associated with the client device;

determine, by the at least one processor, a media effect from the plurality of media effects for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display utilizing the media effect ranking; and

present, by the at least one processor, the media effect for display together with the landscape content within the camera viewfinder display.

9. The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to identify a landscape media effect from a repository of media effects stored at a database for the plurality of media effects.

10. The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to

select the media effect for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display based on user interaction selecting the media effect from the media effect ranking for the plurality of media effects compatible with the landscape content.

11. The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to present the media effect for display together with the landscape content within the camera viewfinder display by automatically overlaying a top-ranked media effect on the camera viewfinder display from the media effect ranking.

12. The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to determine a landscape media effect specific to the location associated with the client device for the plurality of media effects.

13. The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to present the media effect for display together with the landscape content by providing the media effect for display on the client device as an overlay of the landscape content depicted within the camera viewfinder display.

14. The system of claim 8 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to determine that the camera viewfinder display is depicting the landscape content by identifying subject matter presented within the camera viewfinder display as landscape content.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computing device to:

analyze, by at least one processor, landscape content depicted within a camera viewfinder display associated with a client device;

determine, by the at least one processor, a location associated with a client device;

generate, by the at least one processor, a media effect ranking by ranking a plurality of media effects for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display according to respective compatibilities in relation to the landscape content depicted within the camera viewfinder display and the location associated with the client device;

determine, by the at least one processor, a media effect from the plurality of media effects for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display utilizing the media effect ranking; and

present, by the at least one processor, the media effect for display together with the landscape content within the camera viewfinder display.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to identify a landscape media effect from a repository of media effects stored at a database for the plurality of media effects.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to determine that the camera viewfinder display is depicting the landscape content by identifying subject matter presented within the camera viewfinder display as landscape content.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to

select the media effect for overlaying on the camera viewfinder display based on user interaction selecting the media effect from the media effect ranking for the plurality of media effects compatible with the landscape content.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to present the media effect for display together with the landscape content within the camera viewfinder display by automatically overlaying a top-ranked media effect on the camera viewfinder display from the media effect ranking.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to determine a landscape media effect specific to the location associated with the client device for the plurality of media effects.
