Video preview creation with audio
Providing a method for creating and displaying portions of videos called video previews. The video previews may be associated with audio, such that when the video previews are activated, the audio may play with the video preview. When multiple video previews are organized to play as a playable group or composite of video previews, a corresponding composite audio file can play in response to an activation of the composite.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a computing device, a composite audio-video object, wherein the composite audio-video object includes a first video preview and a second video preview, wherein a composite audio file is associated with the composite audio-video object and the composite audio file is played according to a composite audio rule when the composite audio-video object is activated;
identifying, by the computing device, that the composite audio-video object is activated; and
in response to identifying the activation of the composite audio-video object, simultaneously playing the first video preview, the second video preview, and the composite audio file according to the composite audio rule, wherein the first video preview, the second video preview, and the composite audio file begin playing at a same start time.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously while the first video preview and the second video preview are played.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously according to a composite audio rule.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously while the composite audio-video object is active.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the composite audio file is not played for at least a portion of time that the first video preview is playing.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein a first duration of the composite audio file is shorter than a second duration of the first video preview, but greater than zero.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the composite audio rule stops the composite audio file before the second duration of the first video preview.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the composite audio rule alters a pitch of the composite audio file.
9. A computer product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium storing a plurality of instructions that when executed control a computer system to play a video preview with audio, the instructions comprising:
receiving, by the computer product, a composite audio-video object, wherein the composite audio-video object includes a first video preview and a second video preview, wherein a composite audio file is associated with the composite audio-video object and the composite audio file is played according to a composite audio rule when the composite audio-video object is activated;
identifying, by the computer product, that the composite audio-video object is activated; and
in response to identifying the activation of the composite audio-video object, simultaneously playing the first video preview, the second video preview, and the composite audio file according to the composite audio rule, wherein the first video preview, the second video preview, and the composite audio file begin playing at a same start time.
10. The computer product of claim 9 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously while the first video preview and the second video preview are played.
11. The computer product of claim 9 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously according to a composite audio rule.
12. The computer product of claim 9 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously while the composite audio-video object is active.
13. The computer product of claim 9 , wherein the composite audio file is not played for at least a portion of time that the first video preview is playing.
14. The computer product of claim 9 , wherein a first duration of the composite audio file is shorter than a second duration of the first video preview.
15. A system comprising:
one or more processors configured to:
receive a composite audio-video object, wherein the composite audio-video object includes a first video preview and a second video preview, wherein a composite audio file is associated with the composite audio-video object and the composite audio file is played according to a composite audio rule when the composite audio-video object is activated;
identify that the composite audio-video object is activated; and
in response to identifying the activation of the composite audio-video object, simultaneously play the first video preview, the second video preview, and the composite audio file according to the composite audio rule, wherein the first video preview, the second video preview, and the composite audio file begin playing at a same start time.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously while the first video preview and the second video preview are played.
17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously according to a composite audio rule.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the composite audio file is looped to play continuously while the composite audio-video object is active.
19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the composite audio file is not played for at least a portion of time that the first video preview is playing.
20. The system of claim 15 , wherein a first duration of the composite audio file is shorter than a second duration of the first video preview.
