Abstract

A computer readable storage medium has stored thereon a prerecorded video experience container. The prerecorded video experience container includes a prerecorded video file that displays visual content, an executable experience which upon execution enables presentation of additional content associated with the prerecorded video file, and an interactive region of the prerecorded video file, wherein the interactive region of the prerecorded video file is associated with the executable experience such that a user interaction with the interactive region executes the executable experience. The prerecorded video file is displayed in response to a selection of the prerecorded video experience container. The executable experience associated with the prerecorded video file is executed in response to identifying an interaction with the interactive region. The additional content associated with the prerecorded video file is displayed in response to executing the executable experience.

Claims (40)

1. A method, executed by one or more processors of a mobile computing device including a display, comprising:

receiving a prerecorded video file for displaying visual content, the prerecorded video file including an identification of an interactive region of the prerecorded video file and a time-related customization factor defining a time period for execution of an executable experience associated with the prerecorded video file;

displaying the prerecorded video file on the display;

receiving user selection of the interactive region;

executing a first executable experience on the mobile computing device based on a first determination that a time of day or a particular day at the mobile computing device falls within the time period defined by the customization factor; and

executing a second executable experience on the mobile computing device based on a second determination that the time of day or the particular day at the mobile computing device does not fall within the time period defined by the customization factor.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the customization factor defines a date.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein executing the first executable experience presents an interface for purchasing a ticket to an event.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein executing the first executable experience presents a coupon that is redeemable at a business.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein one or both of the first and second executable experiences comprises instructions relating to an application stored on the mobile computing device.

6. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

customizing one or both of the first and second executable experiences according to a user profile of a user operating the mobile computing device.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein one or both of the first and second executable experiences comprise a media file.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein the customization factor further includes at least one of a time of day, a day or a date.

9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code stored thereon for causing a mobile computing device including a display to perform a method comprising:

receiving a prerecorded video file for displaying visual content, the prerecorded video file including an identification of an interactive region of the prerecorded video file and a time-related customization factor defining a time period for execution of an executable experience associated with the prerecorded video file;

displaying the prerecorded video file on the display;

receiving user selection of the interactive region;

executing a first executable experience on the mobile computing device based on a first determination that a time of day or a particular day at the mobile computing device falls within the time period defined by the customization factor; and

executing a second executable experience on the mobile computing device based on a second determination that the time of day or the particular day at the mobile computing device does not fall within the time period defined by the customization factor.

10. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein the customization factor defines a date.

11. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein executing the first executable experience presents an interface for purchasing a ticket to an event.

12. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein executing the first executable experience presents a coupon that is redeemable at a business.

13. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein one or both of the first and second executable experiences comprises instructions relating to an application stored on the mobile computing device.

14. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein the method further comprises:

customizing one or both of the first and second executable experiences according to a user profile of a user operating the mobile computing device.

15. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein one or both of the first and second executable experiences comprise a media file.

16. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 9 wherein the customization factor further includes at least one of a time of day, a day or a date.

17. A mobile computing device comprising:

one or more processors;

a display; and

a memory storing instructions for providing prerecorded video experience to a user of the mobile computing device, the instructions when executed by at least one processor among the one or more processors, causes the mobile computing device to perform operations comprising:

receiving a prerecorded video file for displaying visual content, the prerecorded video file including an identification of an interactive region of the prerecorded video file and a time-related customization factor defining a time period for execution of an executable experience associated with the prerecorded video file;

displaying the prerecorded video file on the display;

receiving user selection of the interactive region;

executing a first executable experience on the mobile computing device based on a first determination that a time of day or a particular day at the mobile computing device falls within the time period defined by the customization factor; and

executing a second executable experience on the mobile computing device based on a second determination that the time of day or the particular day at the mobile computing device does not fall within the time period defined by the customization factor.

18. The mobile computing device of claim 17 wherein executing the first executable experience presents an interface for purchasing a ticket to an event.

19. The mobile computing device of claim 17 wherein the customization factor defines a date.

20. The mobile computing device of claim 17 wherein executing the first executable experience presents a coupon that is redeemable at a business.
