Media clip creation and distribution systems, apparatus, and methods
Various embodiments for creating media clips are disclosed. In one example, a method is performed by a server for managing the creation and distribution of media clips, where the server associates a content capture device with an event, the content capture device for recording at least a portion of the event, receives a tag notification from a content tagging device via a network interface, generates a media clip creation command to the content capture device via the network interface, sends the media clip creation command to the content capture device, and receives a media clip created by the content capture device in response to receiving the media clip creation command.
1. A user-wearable content tagging device for generating a tagging signal when a user performs a predetermined action, comprising:
a motion-sensitive device for providing signals indicative of user motion;
a memory for storing processor-executable instructions;
a transmitter for transmitting the tagging signal; and
a processor, coupled to the motion-sensitive device, the memory, and the transmitter, for executing the processor-executable instructions that causes the tagging device to:
determining, by the processor, that the signals from the motion-sensitive device indicate the predetermined action by the user; and
generating, by the processor, the tagging signal when the processor determines that the predetermined action has occurred; and
transmitting, by the processor, the tagging signal to a receiver;
wherein the receiver uses the tagging signal to create a media clip of the user performing the predetermined action.
