Abstract

Example aspects include techniques for creating video stickers from user-generated content. These techniques may include receiving selection of a video content item previously uploaded to a SMP server application corresponding to the SMP client application, and presenting a graphical user interface (GUI) for receiving one or more derivative attributes for generating a derivative video sticker from the video content item. In addition, the techniques may include adding the derivative video sticker to a library of stickers provided by the SMP server application to a plurality of SMP client applications, and presenting the derivative video sticker within a communication interface associated with the SMP server application.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method comprising:
receiving selection of a video content item previously uploaded to a social media platform (SMP) server application corresponding to a SMP client application;
presenting a graphical user interface (GUI) for receiving one or more derivative attributes for generating a derivative video sticker from the video content item;
generating the derivative video sticker from the video content item based on the one or more derivative attributes;
adding the derivative video sticker to a library of stickers provided by the SMP server application to a plurality of SMP client applications; and
presenting the derivative video sticker within a communication interface associated with the SMP server application.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more derivative attributes include at least one of:
a sticker effect to apply to the video content item within the derivative video sticker;
a caption to include within the derivative video sticker;
an overlay sticker to include within the derivative video sticker; or
trimming information identifying a portion of the video content item to include in the derivative video sticker.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the communication interface is a direct messaging interface for communicating with a SMP client application on another device.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein presenting the derivative video sticker comprises presenting a plurality of stickers for selection for use within the SMP client application, the plurality of stickers including the derivative video sticker.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving selection of the derivative video sticker within a sticker selection interface of the SMP client application; and
displaying derivation information associated with the derivative video sticker based upon the selection, the derivation information including an account of a creator of the derivative video sticker.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving selection of the derivative video sticker within a sticker selection interface of the SMP client application; and
adding the derivative video sticker to a collection of favorited stickers based upon the selection.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving flag information from the SMP server application, the flag information identifying the video content item and/or the derivative video sticker; and
preventing access to the derivative video sticker via the SMP client application based upon the flag information.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
acquiring source information of the derivative video sticker, the source information corresponding to the video content item; and
displaying the video content item in response to selection of a control associated with the source information.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable device having instructions thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, causes the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:
receiving selection of video content item previously uploaded to a social media platform (SMP) server application corresponding to a SMP client application;
presenting a graphical user interface (GUI) for receiving one or more derivative attributes for generating a derivative video sticker from the video content item;
generating the derivative video sticker from the video content item based on the one or more derivative attributes;
adding the derivative video sticker to a library of stickers provided by the SMP server application to a plurality of SMP client applications; and
presenting the derivative video sticker within a communication interface associated with the SMP server application.

10. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 9 , wherein the one or more derivative attributes include at least one of:
a sticker effect to apply to the video content item within the derivative video sticker;
a caption to include within the derivative video sticker;
an overlay sticker to include within the derivative video sticker; or
trimming information identifying a portion of the video content item to include in the derivative video sticker.

11. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 9 , wherein the communication interface is a direct messaging interface for communicating with a SMP client application on another device.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 9 , wherein presenting the derivative video sticker comprises presenting a plurality of stickers for selection for use within SMP client application, the plurality of stickers including the derivative video sticker.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions cause the at least one computing device to perform operations further comprising:
receiving selection of the derivative video sticker within sticker selection interface of the SMP client application; and
displaying derivation information associated with the derivative video sticker based upon the selection, the derivation information including an account of a creator of the derivative video sticker.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions cause the at least one computing device to perform operations further comprising:
receiving selection of the derivative video sticker within sticker selection interface of the SMP client application; and
adding the derivative video sticker to a collection of favorited stickers based upon the selection.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable device of claim 9 , wherein the instructions cause the at least one computing device to perform operations further comprising:
acquiring source information of the derivative video sticker, the source information corresponding to the video content item; and
displaying the video content item in response to selection of a control associated with the source information.

16. A system comprising:
a memory storing instructions thereon; and
at least one processor coupled with the memory and configured by the instructions to:
transmit a video content item to a first social media platform (SMP) client application;
receive, from the first SMP client application, one or more derivative attributes for generating a derivative video sticker based on the video content item;
generate the derivative video sticker based on the video content item and the one or more derivative attributes;
add the derivative video sticker to a collection of stickers provided to a plurality of SMP client applications; and
present the derivative video sticker within a communication interface of a second SMP client application.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein to present the derivative video sticker, the at least one processor is further configured by the instructions to:
receive a request for one or more stickers from the second SMP client application; and
transmit the derivative video sticker to the second SMP client application in response to the request.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured by the instructions to:
receive flag information identifying the video content item; and
remove the derivative video sticker from the collection of stickers based on the flag information.

19. The system of claim 16 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured by the instructions to:
receive flag information identifying the video content item; and
remove the derivative video sti
