Systems and methods for creating and navigating broadcast-ready social content items in a live produced video
Systems and methods for incorporating social content items into a produced video are provided. The system presents a producer interface to a user that allows the user to query for social content items. The user may then select and arrange social content items in an on-air queue. In an on-air mode, the system generates a broadcast-ready on-air format of the social content items and provides a video stream including the broadcast-ready social content items in the on-air queue to a video production system. The broadcast-ready social content items are incorporated into a produced video by the video production system. The user may navigate through the social content items in the on-air queue while on camera as part of the produced video.
1. A method of providing graphics content for inclusion in a produced video, the method comprising:
retrieving, by a mobile computing device, a set of social content items from a social media platform;
receiving, by the mobile computing device, a selection of one or more social content items from the set of social content items for inclusion in an on-air queue;
reformatting, by the mobile computing device, at least one of a size, a position, and a font for each content item in the on-air queue to generate on-air format graphics; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device, a display signal including the on-air format graphics to be included in the produced video.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein transmitting the display signal including the on-air format graphics comprises:
transmitting, by the mobile computing device, a display signal including an on-air format graphic associated with a content item in the on-air queue;
receiving, by the mobile computing device from a user, a navigation command to move from the content item in the on-air queue to a different content item in the on-air queue; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device, a display signal including an on-air format graphic associated with the different content item in the on-air queue.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the produced video is a live video of the user providing the navigation command.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the navigation command is selected from the group consisting of a forward command, a back command, a zoom-in command, a zoom-out command, a play command, and a stop command.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the produced video is a broadcast television video or a live streaming video.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein retrieving the set of social content items from the social media platform includes:
receiving, by the mobile computing device, a set of query parameters; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device to the social media platform, a query based on the set of query parameters.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein retrieving the set of social content items from the social media platform further includes applying, by the mobile computing device, one or more compliance rules to a set of social content items received from the social media platform.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising ceasing transmission of the display signal that includes on-air format graphics upon detection of a complex gesture by a user.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the complex gesture is a triple-tap.
10. A nontransitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by one or more processors of a mobile computing device, cause the mobile computing device to perform actions for providing graphics content for inclusion in a produced video, the actions comprising:
retrieving, by the mobile computing device, a set of social content items from a social media platform;
receiving, by the mobile computing device, a selection of one or more social content items from the set of social content items for inclusion in an on-air queue;
reformatting, by the mobile computing device, at least one of a size, a position, and a font for each content item in the on-air queue to generate on-air format graphics; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device, a display signal including the on-air format graphics to be included in the produced video.
11. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein transmitting the display signal including the on-air format graphics comprises:
transmitting, by the mobile computing device, a display signal including an on-air format graphic associated with a content item in the on-air queue;
receiving, by the mobile computing device from a user, a navigation command to move from the content item in the on-air queue to a different content item in the on-air queue; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device, a display signal including an on-air format graphic associated with the different content item in the on-air queue.
12. The computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein retrieving the set of social content items from the social media platform includes:
receiving, by the mobile computing device, a set of query parameters; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device to the social media platform, a query based on the set of query parameters.
