[0040] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a video generation method provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. This embodiment is applicable to video editing scenarios, such as adding a target video between at least two video segments. The method can be executed by a video generation device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware, optionally through an electronic device, such as a mobile terminal, PC, or server.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0042] S110. Display a first track on the first page. The first track includes a first display area and a second display area. The first display area is used to display first media material, and the second display area includes preset placeholder content for video clips.

[0043] The first page represents the preview page of the first media material in the editing application. The editing application represents the application used to edit the media material. The editing application includes a preset page. For example, the preset page can be an editing page. The first page is a subpage of the editing page. The first page is triggered by interactive operations in the editing page. The first media material is an image or video used to generate the target video. The first media material can come from a preset media resource library. For example, the preset media resource library includes a local photo album or a cloud photo album. Optionally, the first media material can also be an image or video generated by a generation model. The first track represents the digital editing area of ​​the first media material. In some embodiments, the first media material in the first track is arranged in chronological order. Optionally, a thumbnail of the first media material is displayed in the first track. A preview area is displayed above the first track on the first page, and a preview image of the first media material in the selected state is displayed in the preview area. A second display area is displayed between the thumbnails of two first media materials. The second display area displays preset placeholder content for video clips corresponding to two adjacent frames of first media materials. Optionally, the preset placeholder content for video clips includes attribute information such as the duration of the video clip.

[0044] Optionally, in response to a sliding operation within the first track, the first media material displayed on the first page is switched, allowing multiple first media materials to be displayed within the first track through sliding switching. In response to a trigger operation on the second display area, information on screen changes between the first media materials is obtained, and / or, information on screen changes for each video segment is obtained. For example, the first descriptive text can describe the screen change information between two adjacent first media materials. Optionally, the first descriptive text can also describe the screen change information for all video segments. For example, the same special effects can be added to all video segments through the first descriptive text.

[0045] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a first page provided as an embodiment of this disclosure. (As shown...) Figure 2 As shown, the first page 210 displays a first track 220 and a preview area 230. The first track 220 includes a first display area 240 and a second display area 250. A thumbnail of the first media clip is displayed in the first display area 240. The attribute information of the video clip is displayed in the second display area 250. Optionally, the attribute information may include video duration, etc. A preview image of the selected first media clip is displayed in the preview area 230.

[0046] Optionally, in response to a trigger operation on a special effects control in the preset page, a special effects page is displayed, wherein the special effects page includes multiple candidate special effects templates. In response to a trigger operation on a target special effects template, a third page is displayed, wherein the third page includes a third control, the third control being used to trigger the acquisition of the first media material.

[0047] For example, in response to a trigger action on an effect control in the editing page, candidate controls corresponding to the effect control are displayed. In response to a trigger action on the target control among the candidate controls corresponding to the effect control, an effects page is displayed. The effects page includes multiple candidate effect templates. In response to a trigger action on the target effect template among the multiple candidate effect templates, a third page is displayed. The third page displays a reference frame for the third control and the target video. The reference frame for the target video can be the selected video frame of the second media material in the editing page. Alternatively, the reference frame for the target video can be the last video frame of the second media material in the editing page, etc. The third control is used to trigger the addition of the first media material after the reference frame.

[0048] S120. In response to a trigger operation on the second display area, an editing area and a first control are displayed on the first page, wherein the editing area is used to input first descriptive text, and the first descriptive text represents at least part of the screen change information corresponding to the first media material.

[0049] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the editing area is a control on the first page for inputting first descriptive text. The first descriptive text is descriptive text about screen change information corresponding to at least a portion of the first media materials, enabling user-customized video effects. Optionally, the first descriptive text may be descriptive text about global screen change information of the target video. And / or, the first descriptive text may be descriptive text about screen change information between portions of the first media materials. For example, the first descriptive text is descriptive text about screen change information of each video segment of the target video. Wherein, each video segment of the target video includes the video segment corresponding to the first media materials in frame 1 and frame 2, the video segment corresponding to the first media materials in frame 2 and frame 3, ..., and the video segment corresponding to the first media materials in frame (i-1) and frame 1. Alternatively, the first descriptive text is descriptive text about screen change information of video segments corresponding to first media materials in two adjacent frames. For example, the first descriptive text is descriptive text about screen change information between the first media materials in frame 1 and frame 2. Or, the first descriptive text is descriptive text about screen change information between the first media materials in frame 2 and frame 3. Alternatively, the first descriptive text may be a descriptive text about the changes in image quality between the first media material in frame i-1 and the first media material in frame i.

[0050] Optionally, in response to a text input operation within the editing area, a first descriptive text is displayed in the editing area. Alternatively, in response to a voice input operation within the editing area, voice data is converted into text content, a first descriptive text is determined based on the text content, and the first descriptive text is displayed in the editing area.

[0051] The first control is used to trigger the video generation operation. For example, the first control can be used to trigger the generation of the target video.

[0052] For example, in response to a trigger operation targeting the second display area, a first track, an editing area, and a first control are displayed on the first page, wherein the triggered second display area is in a selected state. For example, the selected state is to overlay a preset display effect onto the second display area. The preset display effect includes thickening the border, changing the border color, or making the border glow, etc. The editing area is in a state awaiting input. For example, the editing area in the state awaiting input includes preset prompt text, which is used to indicate the effective range of the screen change information described by the first descriptive text. Here, the effective range refers to the range of the second display area corresponding to the screen change information described by the first descriptive text.

[0053] In some embodiments, in response to an input operation on the editing area, first descriptive text is displayed in the editing area. In response to a switching operation on the second display area, the selected state of the second display area after switching is displayed on the first page, as well as the input-pending state of the editing area, allowing the input of the first descriptive text corresponding to the selected second display area to be entered in the editing area.

[0054] S130. In response to a trigger operation on the first control, a second page is displayed, on which a target video is displayed. The target video includes multiple video clips, wherein the video clips are generated based on the first media material and the first descriptive text.

[0055] The second page is a preview page for the target video. It includes a preview area, a regeneration control, and an application control. The preview area is used to play the target video. The regeneration control triggers the regeneration of the target video. The application control adds the target video to the second track of the preset page. Optionally, the target video is added to a position to be filled in the second track. This position could be the position corresponding to a selected video frame in the second track, or it could be a position after a segment of video footage on the preset timeline. Optionally, the reference frame for the target video is the selected video frame in the second track, or it could be the last frame of a segment of video footage.

[0056] For example, in response to a trigger operation on the first control, a video segment corresponding to the selected second display area is generated based on the first descriptive text corresponding to the selected second display area and the first media material displayed in the first display area adjacent to the selected second display area. Here, the first display area adjacent to the selected second display area refers to the first display area before and after the selected second display area. For example, first display area A, second display area B, and first display area C are three consecutive areas within the first track. If second display area B is the selected second display area, then first display area A and first display area C are the first display areas adjacent to the selected second display area. Using a pre-configured model generation service, a video segment between the first media material displayed in first display area A and first media material displayed in first display area C is generated based on the first media material displayed in first display area A, first media material displayed in first display area C, and the first descriptive text. Using the same method, video segments between the first media materials in every two first display areas within the first track are generated to obtain the target video.

[0057] The technical solution of this disclosure embodiment, by displaying a first track, including a first display area and a second display area, and the first display area including first media material, allows for flexible editing of the first media material based on creative needs through intuitive display of the first media material. Furthermore, preset placeholder content for video clips is displayed in the second display area, enabling precise control over the position of the video clips to be generated. Further, in response to a trigger operation on the second display area, an editing area and a first control are displayed on the first page. The editing area is used to input first descriptive text, which represents at least part of the screen change information corresponding to the first media material. Since the video clip is generated based on the first media material and the first descriptive text, and both the first media material and the first descriptive text can be flexibly edited, it is convenient to generate a target video that meets the user's expectations. In response to a trigger operation on the first control, a second page is displayed, showing the target video. The technical solution of this disclosure embodiment provides an optimized video generation method, enabling flexible and accurate generation of a target video based on multiple frames of first media material and first descriptive text, solving the problem of unsatisfactory video effects in related technologies, and improving the quality of video generation.

[0058] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating another video generation method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment specifically defines the display of the editing area on the first page.

[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0060] S310. Display a first track on the first page. The first track includes a first display area and a second display area. The first display area is used to display first media material, and the second display area includes preset placeholder content for video clips.

[0061] S320. In response to a trigger operation on the second display area, a first editing area, a second editing area, and a first control are displayed on the first page. The first descriptive text in the first editing area is used to describe the screen change information corresponding to the target video. The first descriptive text in the second editing area is used to describe the screen change information corresponding to a portion of the first media material. The display forms of the first editing area and the second editing area are linked.

[0062] In this embodiment, the first descriptive text within the first editing area ensures that all video clips of the first media materials within the first track exhibit the same special effects. Alternatively, a portion of the first media materials may refer to every two first media materials within the first track. Alternatively, a portion of the first media materials may refer to every three first media materials within the first track. The number of first media materials involved in a portion of the first media materials can be set according to actual needs. That is, video clips are generated using the first descriptive text within the second editing area and every N first media materials, where N is a positive integer set according to actual needs.

[0063] The interaction between the first and second editing areas can be described as follows: the display modes of the first and second editing areas are inverse processes of each other. The selection state of the second editing area is related to the display modes of the first and second editing areas. The display mode represents the visualization state of the first and second editing areas. For example, display modes include expanded and collapsed modes, or maximized and minimized modes, etc.

[0064] Optionally, in response to a trigger operation on the second display area, the first page displays an expanded first editing area and a collapsed second editing area. The position of the video clip to be generated can be switched by triggering an operation on the second display area within the first track.

[0065] S330, in response to the switching operation for the first editing area and the second editing area, switch the display mode of the first editing area and the second editing area, and switch the selection state of the second display area.

[0066] The switching operations include clicking, selecting, or boxing the first or second editing area. Optionally, preset switching controls are displayed in both the first and second editing areas. In response to a triggering operation on the preset switching control, the display state of the first and second editing areas is switched. For example, assuming the first editing area is in an expanded state, clicking the preset switching control within the first editing area displays the collapsed state of the first editing area on the first page, and the expanded state of the second editing area.

[0067] For example, in response to a trigger operation on the first editing area, the first editing area is switched from a first form to a second form, and the second editing area is switched from a second form to a first form. Similarly, in response to a trigger operation on the second editing area, the second editing area is switched from a first form to a second form, and the first editing area is switched from a second form to a first form.

[0068] The first and second forms are two display forms that are inverse processes of each other. For example, the first form is an expanded form, and the second form is a collapsed form. If the first editing area is in an expanded form, then the second editing area is in a collapsed form. If the first editing area is in a collapsed form, then the second editing area is in an expanded form. Optionally, if the editing area includes first descriptive text, then after the editing area is converted to a collapsed form, a preset identifier is displayed at the position corresponding to the editing area in the collapsed form. For example, the preset identifier can be a preset graphic.

[0069] In this embodiment, the selection state of the second display area is associated with the display forms of the first and second editing areas. In some embodiments, if the first editing area is in a first form, all second display areas within the first track are selected. If the second editing area is in a first form, the portion of the second display areas within the first track corresponding to the second editing area are selected. For example, the second display area corresponding to the second editing area is determined based on preset prompt text within the second editing area. Assuming that first display area A, second display area B, and first display area C are three consecutive areas within the first track, first display area A displays first media material A, first display area C displays first media material C, and the preset prompt text represents the generation of a video segment between first media material A and first media material C, the second display area corresponding to the second editing area can be determined as second display area B. This embodiment, by associating the selection state of the second display area with the first and second editing areas, achieves an intuitive display of the first media material corresponding to the video segment to be generated, facilitating the quick determination of the first media material corresponding to the video segment through the selection state of the second display area, and assisting the user in editing the first descriptive text related to the video segment based on the determined first media material.

[0070] Optionally, in response to the second editing area being in the first form, preset configuration items are displayed on the first page, wherein the preset configuration items represent the attribute information of the video segment. Optionally, the attribute information may include video duration, etc. In response to a trigger operation on the preset configuration items, multiple candidate configuration items are displayed, for example, multiple video duration options are displayed. In response to a trigger operation on a target configuration item among the multiple candidate configuration items, the preset configuration items are updated based on the target configuration item. In this embodiment of the disclosure, by displaying preset configuration items in response to the second editing area being in the first form, the attributes of video segments between some first media materials can be edited through the editing operation of the preset configuration items, which facilitates the individual editing of the relevant attributes of each video segment and realizes flexible adjustment of the attributes of different video segments.

[0071] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of another first page provided as an embodiment of this disclosure. (See diagram below.) Figure 4As shown, the first page 410 displays a first track 420, a first editing area 430, a second editing area 440, and a first control 450. The first track 420 includes a first display area 460 and a second display area 470. The first display area 460 displays first media material. The second display area 470 displays attribute information of a video clip. The first editing area 430 includes a first preset switching control 431. The second editing area 440 includes a second preset switching control 441. The first editing area 430 is in an expanded state, and the second editing area 440 is in a collapsed state. All second display areas are selected (indicated by a thick border). In response to a trigger operation on the first preset switching control 431, the first page 410 displays the expanded state of the second editing area 440, the collapsed state of the first editing area 430, and the portion of the second display area 470 corresponding to the second editing area 430 is converted to a selected state. For example, the first second display area 470 in the current first page is selected.

[0072] S340. In response to a trigger operation on the first control, a second page is displayed, on which a target video is displayed. The target video includes multiple video clips, wherein the video clips are generated based on the first media material and the first descriptive text.

[0073] For example, in response to a trigger operation on the first control, video clips corresponding to two adjacent first media materials are generated based on the first descriptive text in the first editing area corresponding to the selected second display area and / or the first descriptive text in the second editing area and the first media material.

[0074] It should be noted that if the first editing area includes the first descriptive text and the second editing area does not include the first descriptive text, then based on the first descriptive text and the first media material in the first track, the video content corresponding to the first descriptive text is added to the video clips corresponding to every two first media materials in the first track. Optionally, if the first editing area does not include the first descriptive text and the second editing area includes the first descriptive text, then based on the first descriptive text and the first media material in the first track corresponding to the selected second display area, a video clip corresponding to a portion of the first media material in the first track is generated. Optionally, if both the first and second editing areas include the first descriptive text, the video content in both cases is superimposed. By inputting the first descriptive text in the first and second editing areas respectively, it is possible to generate both the global video content between every two first media materials in the first track and the video clips between the portion of the first media material corresponding to the selected second display area, and then add the global video content to the generated video clips.

[0075] The technical solution of this disclosure embodiment displays a first track on a first page, the first track including a first display area and a second display area. In response to a trigger operation on the second display area, a first editing area, a second editing area, and a first control are displayed on the first page. Since the display forms of the first and second editing areas are linked, in response to a switching operation on the first and second editing areas, the display forms of the first and second editing areas are switched, and the selection state of the second display area is switched, increasing the interactive interest and improving the user experience. Furthermore, associating the selection state of the second display area with the display forms of the first and second editing areas allows for a more intuitive display of the first media material corresponding to the video clip to be generated, facilitating convenient and rapid input of the first descriptive text. Further, the corresponding video clip is quickly generated based on the first media material and the first descriptive text.

[0076] Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating another video generation method provided in this disclosure. Based on the above embodiments, this disclosure further defines the display method of the first page and the acquisition method of the first media material.

[0077] like Figure 5 As shown, the method includes:

[0078] S510. Display the second media material in the second track of the preset page.

[0079] The preset page is an interactive page for editing media data. The second track is the track within the preset page that carries media materials. Media materials include images or videos, etc. The second media material represents the original video or original image collection.

[0080] S520: In response to the interactive operation on the second media material meeting preset conditions, the second control is displayed on the second track.

[0081] In some embodiments, interactive operations on second media materials in a second track are acquired. Preset conditions are used to determine whether the interactive operations continuously add media materials to the second track. A pre-configured model service can be used to identify whether a user intends to continuously add media materials to the second track based on the interactive operations on the second media materials; if so, the interactive operations on the second media materials are determined to meet the preset conditions.

[0082] The second control serves as the entry point to the third page. The third page represents the media upload page. Users can select the method for obtaining the first media material through the third page. Optionally, the method includes obtaining the first media material from a preset media resource library or generating the first media material. The preset media resource library includes local photo albums or cloud photo albums, etc.

[0083] S530. In response to a trigger operation on the second control, a third page is displayed, wherein the third page includes a third control, which is used to trigger the acquisition of the first media material.

[0084] For example, in response to a triggering action on the second control, a third page is displayed. The third page displays a reference frame of the third control and the target video. The reference frame of the target video can be a selected video frame of the second media material on the preset page.
