obtain video information defining a video, the video including video content having a progress length, the video content including visual content viewable as a function of progress through the progress length, the visual content having a field of view;

obtain framing information for the video, the framing information characterizing framings of the visual content at moments within the progress length, the framings of the visual content including a first framing at a first moment, an individual framing of the visual content defining a positioning of a viewing window within the field of view of the visual content at a corresponding moment within the progress length, the viewing window defining extents of the visual content to be included within a presentation of the video content, wherein the framing information is determined based on a user's interaction with a mobile device, the mobile device including a display, the mobile device providing a presentation of the extents of visual content defined by the viewing window on the display to facilitate the user's interaction with the mobile device to determine the framing information, wherein the mobile device further provides visual indications of the framings of the visual content at the moments within the progress length within the presentation of the extents of the visual content defined by the viewing window, the visual indications of the framings of the visual content at the moments presented during presentation of other moments within the progress length on the display such that presentation on the display of a second moment different from the first moment within the progress length includes a first visual indication of the first framing of the visual content at the first moment within the progress length; and

provide the framing information for the video to a video editing application that utilizes the framing information to provide preliminary framings of the visual content at the moments within the progress length.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the individual framing of the visual content defines the positioning of the viewing window within the field of view of the visual content based on a viewing direction and a viewing size of the viewing window.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the individual framing of the visual content further defines the positioning of the viewing window within the field of view of the visual content based on a viewing rotation and/or a viewing projection of the viewing window.

4. The system of claim 2 , wherein the framing information characterizes the viewing direction based on the framing information including orientation information of the mobile device.

5. The system of claim 2 , wherein the user's interaction with the mobile device determines the framing information based on the user controlling orientation of the mobile device to set the viewing direction.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the user's interaction with the mobile device determines the framing information further based on the user controlling zooming operation of the mobile device to set the viewing size.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the display of the mobile device includes a touchscreen display, and the zooming operation of the mobile device is controlled by the user based on the user making a stretching gesture or a pinching gesture on the touchscreen display.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the framing information characterizes the framings of the visual content at non-adjacent moments within the progress length, and the framings of the visual content for a duration of the progress length between the non-adjacent moments are determined based on the framings of the visual content at the non-adjacent moments.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual indications of the framings of the visual content include outlines of the positioning of the viewing window overlaid on top of the visual content presented on the display.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual indications of the framings of the visual content include arrows at a periphery of the display to indicate directions of the framings of the visual content that are outside a current framing of the visual content.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual indications of the framings of the visual content change based on distances between a current moment presented on the display and the moments corresponding to the framings of the visual content.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the visual indications of the framings of the visual content changing based on the distances between the current moment presented on the display and the moments corresponding to the framings of the visual content include size, shape, and/or color of the visual indications changing based on the distances between the current moment presented on the display and the moments corresponding to the framings of the visual content.

13. A method for utilizing device orientation for video framing, the method performed by a computing system including one or more processors, the method comprising:

obtaining, by the computing system, video information defining a video, the video including video content having a progress length, the video content including visual content viewable as a function of progress through the progress length, the visual content having a field of view;

obtaining, by the computing system, framing information for the video, the framing information characterizing framings of the visual content at moments within the progress length, the framings of the visual content including a first framing at a first moment, an individual framing of the visual content defining a positioning of a viewing window within the field of view of the visual content at a corresponding moment within the progress length, the viewing window defining extents of the visual content to be included within a presentation of the video content, wherein the framing information is determined based on a user's interaction with a mobile device, the mobile device including a display, the mobile device providing a presentation of the extents of visual content defined by the viewing window on the display to facilitate the user's interaction with the mobile device to determine the framing information, wherein the mobile device further provides visual indications of the framings of the visual content at the moments within the progress length within the presentation of the extents of the visual content defined by the viewing window, the visual indications of the framings of the visual content at the moments presented during presentation of other moments within the progress length on the display such that presentation on the display of a second moment different from the first moment within the progress length includes a first visual indication of the first framing of the visual content at the first moment within the progress length; and

providing, by the computing system, the framing information for the video to a video editing application that utilizes the framing information to provide preliminary framings of the visual content at the moments within the progress length.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the individual framing of the visual content defines the positioning of the viewing window within the field of view of the visual content based on a viewing direction and a viewing size of the viewing window.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the individual framing of the visual content further defines the positioning of the viewing window within the field of view of the visual content based on a viewing rotation and/or a viewing projection of the viewing window.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the framing information characterizes the viewing direction based on the framing information including orientation information of the mobile device.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the user's interaction with the mobile device determines the framing information based on the user controlling orientation of the mobile device to set the viewing direction.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the user's interaction with the mobile device determines the framing information further based on the user controlling zooming operation of the mobile device to set the viewing size.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the display of the mobile device includes a touchscreen display, and the zooming operation of the mobile device is controlled by the user based on the user making a stretching gesture or a pinching gesture on the touchscreen display.

20. The method of claim 13 , wherein the framing information characterizes the framings of the visual content at non-adjacent moments within the progress length, and the framings of the visual content for a duration of the progress length between the non-adjacent moments are determined based on the framings of the visual content at the non-adjacent moments.
