However, the creative user may find that access to such tools can be cost prohibitive, as well as requiring a large investment of the user's time to become proficient in their use.
Although the user may have a desire to create, the limited access to such tools, as well as the investment of time required in learning how to use the various tools, may deter many users from satisfying this desire.
A further obstacle to satisfying this desire to create is the usually limited audience available to appreciate the non-professional user's creations. After investing the time to learn how to create and edit their own content, the non-professional user will generally, at most, e-mail a copy of their creations to a few friends.
Although the user may be very talented, only a very small group of people are able to appreciate that talent. Therefore, it can be seen that there is a need for a user-friendly media content creation and editing system and process. Furthermore, it can be seen that there is a need for a media content sharing and publishing system and process whereby users can easily display their media content to a wider audience, as well as making their media content available for sharing by other users.

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a media content creating and publishing system and process for creating, editing, sharing, and publishing media content items, and in example embodiments, to a broadband creativity platform for creating, editing, sharing, and publishing of media content items online. In example embodiments, the broadband creativity platform is implemented as a website on which users are provided with digital assets and tools required for on-line and off-line creating and editing of media content items, as well as tools for sharing media content items between users, and for online publishing of media content items.
Embodiments of the broadband creativity platform's website provide one or more functions including, but not limited to: 1 allowing a user of the website to experience creative media content licensed from independent sources, as well as content that has been created by users of the platform; 2 allowing a user of the platform to access media creation and editing tools in order to create and edit, either on-line or off-line, content such as, but not limited to, video and audio segments; 3 allowing a user to upload user-created content to the platform; 4 allowing a user to store and manage the media content in storage space provided by the platform; 5 allowing a user to share media content with other users of the website; 6 allowing a user to display user content on a showcase page assigned to the user and viewable by other users of the platform; and 7 allowing user-created content to be selectively ingested into the main display pages of the platform.
An embodiment of the system and process employs a network of computer systems. The components of the network may be interconnected across a wide area network, such as, but not limited to, the Internet.
The digital assets and other media content may be licensed from independent providers by the website or owned by the website. The servers also reserve storage space for user-created content that may be created and uploaded by the user to the platform. The main website may contain a homepage and a tree of numerous additional web pages inter-linked with the homepage at the root. The user may browse through the website by following links within the pages of the website or by using various tools, such as, but not limited to, a search tool, a graphic guide to media content on the platform, user selectable operators such as virtual buttons designated selectable icons or areas and menus, lists, and the like.
Media content search and guide functions may be implemented using this meta-data. The user can search for media content items on the website based on certain criteria, such as, but not limited to, media content item type, media content item keywords, and the media content item creator.
The website's homepage contains links to other pages on the website. Users may manage favorite links by accessing, adding and deleting favorite links. In one embodiment, the homepage may contain user-selectable operators for selecting a desired functionality.
Systems and processes according to example embodiments of the present invention may be employed on a website on which digital assets and tools are made available to users of the website who have registered and logged on to the website.
In one embodiment, users will subscribe for example, pay a fee in order to obtain access to the digital assets and tools that are available. In other embodiments, scaled-down versions of digital assets and tools may be made available to the registered or unregistered users of the website at no charge.
Full-versions of these tools may be purchased or leased from the website for a fee. In some embodiments, media creation and editing tools may be accessed and downloaded by the user for on-line or off-line creation and editing of the user's own media content items. Media content items created by website users may be uploaded to the website and stored in a storage area made available to users.
These stored media content items may be managed by the user in various ways, such as, but not limited to, defining, sorting, searching, sharing, and deleting the stored media content items.
The showcase page may be viewable by other users of the platform. These administrative tools facilitate administration of the website by website administrators and programmers.
Depending on the user's purpose, the user may choose one of these three operators. In one embodiment, when the user chooses to experience media content, the user may be presented with a further choice between various user-selectable operators, each linked to a particular channel home page. A channel home page may be the main page on which a particular genre of media content for example, comedy, drama, action, science fiction, horror, or music is presented.
This main page contains promotes that link to other pages or present media content to the user. For example, each asset pack may comprise audio and video segments related to a particular genre.
Using media creation and editing tools, the user may then insert this video, animation, audio and other digital media into, for example, pre-defined templates and timelines. The channel home pages may comprise user-selectable operators that link to digital assets associated with the genre on that channel home page. Thus, for example, the user can experience the action channel home page and then select a create user-selectable operator on that page which will link the user to an action asset pack.
As discussed above, the action asset pack may contain, for example, video, audio, and animation segments of action scenes, including, but not limited to, explosions, car chases, and fight scenes. The user may then use the action segments in the user's own creations. As an example, the user may have video showing a child falling off a bike.
The user may insert a video segment of an explosion obtained from the website at the point in the user's video where the child falls. The user may then display this video on the user's own user showcase page on the website, as discussed below. The media content may then be uploaded to the user's showcase page on the website. A particular user's showcase page may then be accessible to other users of the website who enter that user's user name after the website's URL.
Thus, the user may connect with other users of the website by having a showcase page on which to display the user's creative media content and by being able to search for and access other user's showcase pages. The architecture of the Web follows a conventional client-server model. In the Web environment, Web browsers reside on clients and render Web documents pages served by the Web servers.
The client-server model is used to communicate information between UND and Web server Other embodiments may employ other networks. While the actual sequence of events and operation of the main pages of the website vary with different embodiments, in one example embodiment a user first connects to the website using a web-browser, such as Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer.
