VISUAL MEDIA PERSONALIZATION BASED UPON USER CHARACTERISTIC

1 . A method, comprising:

receiving, at an information handling device, input from a user to display at least one piece of visual media comprising a plurality of media elements, wherein each of the plurality of media elements correspond to image elements within the at least one piece of visual media, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of media elements are identified as secondary content;

identifying, using a media characterization system of the information handling device, at least one characteristic of the user; and

dynamically changing, utilizing the media characterization system, at least one of the plurality of media elements identified as the secondary content to another media element option, wherein the another media element option is correlated to the user based upon the at least one characteristic, wherein the dynamically changing comprises overlaying the another media element option over the at least one of the plurality of media elements identified as secondary content.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying comprises classifying the user into a subgroup of users having at least one matching characteristic and wherein the another media element option is correlated to the at least one matching characteristic.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the another media option is selected from a preset plurality of media options.

4 . (canceled)

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the dynamically changing comprises identifying at least one of the plurality of media elements corresponding to primary content of the at least one piece of visual media data; and

wherein the secondary content comprises a media element other than the at least one of the plurality of media elements corresponding to primary content.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the identifying at least one of the plurality of media elements corresponding to primary content comprises utilizing a content analysis technique.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of media elements available for changing within the at least one piece of visual media are predefined.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the user characteristic comprises a geographic location of the user.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying the at least one characteristic comprises accessing at least one linked account corresponding to the user.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the user characteristic comprises at least one determined interest of the user identified utilizing a user specific algorithm.

11 . An information handling device, comprising:

a processor;

a memory device that stores instructions that when executed by the processor, causes the information handling device to:

receive input from a user to display at least one piece of visual media comprising a plurality of media elements, wherein each of the plurality of media elements correspond to image elements within the at least one piece of visual media, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of media elements are identified as secondary content;

identify, using a media characterization system of the information handling, the at least one characteristic of the user; and

dynamically change, utilizing the media characterization system, at least one of the plurality of media elements to another media element option, wherein the another media element option is correlated to the user based upon the at least one characteristic, wherein the dynamically changing comprises overlaying the another media element option over the at least one of the plurality of media elements identified as secondary content.

12 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the identifying comprises classifying the user into a subgroup of users having at least one matching characteristic and wherein the another media element option is correlated to the at least one matching characteristic.

13 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the another media option is selected from a preset plurality of media options.

14 . (canceled)

15 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the dynamically changing comprises identifying at least one of the plurality of media elements corresponding to primary content of the at least one piece of visual media data; and

wherein the secondary content comprises a media element other than the at least one of the plurality of media elements corresponding to primary content.

16 . The information handling device of claim 15 , wherein the identifying at least one of the plurality of media elements corresponding to primary content comprises utilizing a content analysis technique.

17 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of media elements available for changing within the at least one piece of visual media are predefined.

18 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the user characteristic comprises a geographic location of the user.

19 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the identifying the at least one characteristic comprises accessing at least one linked account corresponding to the user.

20 . A product, the product comprising:

a computer-readable storage device that stores executable code that, when executed by the processor, causes the product to:

receive, at an information handling device, input from a user to display at least one piece of visual media comprising a plurality of media elements, wherein each of the plurality of media elements correspond to image elements within the at least one piece of visual media, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of media elements are identified as secondary content;

identify, using a media characterization system of the information handling device, at least one characteristic of the user; and

dynamically change, utilizing the media characterization system, at least one of the plurality of media elements to another media element option, wherein the another media element option is correlated to the at least one matching characteristic, wherein the dynamically changing comprises overlaying the another media element option over the at least one of the plurality of media elements identified as secondary content.
