[0025] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a video generation system provided in one scenario. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the system may include a server 110, a network 120, several terminal devices 130, and a database 140. The terminal devices include at least one of mobile terminals and PCs.

[0026] Server 110 can be a physical server containing a single host, or it can be a virtual server hosted in a host cluster. During operation, server 110 can run server-side programs for video editing tools, thus acting as the server for the video editing tools. The video editing tools can be applications that implement video editing functions.

[0027] exist Figure 1In the system configuration described, server 110 may include one or more components that implement the functions performed by server 110. These components may include at least one of software components and hardware components executable by one or more processors. A user operating terminal device 130 can interact with server 110 using a client to utilize the services provided by these components. It is understood that different system configurations may exist. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram for implementing a video generation system in one scenario.

[0028] Mobile terminals or PCs can represent terminals with different roles. For example, different roles include a first account and a second account. The first account represents the creator of the media content set associated with the group, and the second account represents an invited group member. The terminal devices 130 corresponding to the first and second accounts are connected to the server 110 via network 120. Typically, network 120 can be any type of network, which can use any of a variety of available protocols (including TCP / IP (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol) and IPX (Internet Packet Exchange)) to support data communication. For example, network 120 includes at least one of wired and wireless networks.

[0029] Database 140 can be used to store media content sets, video generation results, and other information. For example, one or more of databases 140 may be used to store media content sets. One or more of databases 140 may be used to store video generation results. Databases 140 may reside in various locations. For example, database 120 used by server 110 may be local to server 110, or it may be located away from server 110 and may communicate with server 110 via network 120 or a dedicated connection. Databases 140 may be of different types. In some cases, database 140 used by server 110 may be a relational database. One or more of these databases 140 may store, update, and retrieve database 140 and data from database 140 in response to commands.

[0030] In some cases, one or more of the databases 140 may also be used by applications to store application data. The databases 140 used by applications may be of different types, such as key-value stores, object stores, or regular storage types supported by the file system.

[0031] It should be noted that, Figure 1 The system can be configured and operated in various ways to implement video generation methods and devices in various situations.

[0032] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a video generation method for one scenario, applicable to video editing on the first account side. The method can be executed by a video generation device, which can be implemented in the form of software and / or hardware, or optionally, by an electronic device, such as a mobile terminal, a PC, or a server.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the method includes: S210. In response to the interactive operation on the first page, a second page is displayed. The second page includes a first identifier, wherein the second page is used to display a media content set, and the first identifier is used to characterize the group members associated with the media content set, the group members including a first account and at least one second account.

[0034] The first page represents a subpage of the first tab in the video editing tool. The first tab can be located in the navigation bar of the video editing tool's homepage. The second page represents the display page for the media content set. The second page includes the second and third tabs. When the second tab is selected, the second page includes a first identifier and an upload control. The subpage corresponding to the third tab includes the video generation results.

[0035] The media content set includes first media content and second media content. The first media content is uploaded by the first account, and the second media content is uploaded by the at least one second account. In response to a deletion operation on the media content set, the media content set and the group members associated with it are deleted. This allows for the simultaneous deletion of the media content included in the media content set and the removal of the group members associated with it, achieving the effect of disbanding the group corresponding to the media content set upon deletion.

[0036] For example, a delete control for the media content set is displayed on the second page. In response to a trigger action on the delete control, a delete request is sent to the server. The delete request includes a space identifier for the storage space associated with the media content set. Storage space is reclaimed based on the space identifier to remove group members and their uploaded media content, thus avoiding wasted storage space.

[0037] Optionally, if the first account has already uploaded media content, the second page may also include the first media content. Alternatively, if both the first and second accounts have uploaded media content, the second page may also include both the first and second media content.

[0038] The first identifier is used to identify the group member associated with the media content set. For example, the first identifier could be a group member's avatar, etc. Optionally, an invitation control is displayed at the location corresponding to the first identifier. The invitation control is used to trigger a member invitation operation. For example, in response to the triggering operation of the invitation control, an invitation link is obtained. The invitation link is used to access the media content set.

[0039] The upload control is used to upload media content to the media content set. In response to the upload control, a retrieval page is displayed, showcasing the media content within the media resource library. The media resource library can be a local photo album or a cloud-based photo album. It's worth noting that a preset prompt message is displayed on the retrieval page to indicate that the uploaded media content will be seen and used by all group members to generate a video.

[0040] The interactive operations on the first page include creating media content and accessing already created media content sets. The creation operation represents the interactive operation associated with the creation control on the first page. If a media content set has been created but no media content has been uploaded, a preset cover image of the created media content set will be displayed on the first page. If a media content set has been created and media content has been uploaded, the preset media content will be used as the cover image of the created media content set and displayed on the first page.

[0041] In one scenario, in response to a creation operation on the first page for the media content set, a second identifier is displayed, wherein the second identifier is used to identify the media content set. In response to a confirmation operation for the second identifier, the second page is displayed.

[0042] For example, a creation control is displayed on the first page. In response to a trigger action on the creation control, a creation panel is displayed. In response to input actions in the creation panel, a second identifier and a confirmation control are displayed in the creation panel. For example, the second identifier could be the name of the media content set. In response to a trigger action on the confirmation control, a second page is displayed, and a storage space is requested from the server based on the second identifier to store the media content set. An invitation link returned by the server is obtained. The invitation link includes the second identifier, the account identifier of the first account, the space identifier of the storage space, and a permission token, etc. The permission token is used to represent the operation permissions for the media content set.

[0043] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a first page provided in one scenario. For example... Figure 3As shown, a creation control 320 is displayed on the first page 310. Optionally, preset guidance text is displayed at the position corresponding to the creation control 320. In response to a click operation on the creation control 320, a creation panel 330 is displayed. The creation panel 330 includes an input box 331 and a confirmation control 332, etc. The input box 331 is used to enter the name of the media content set as a second identifier. In response to a click operation on the confirmation control 332, a second page 340 is displayed. The second page 340 includes a first identifier 350, an upload control 360, and an invitation control 370. Optionally, the first identifier 350 represents the image of the group member associated with the media content set.

[0044] In another scenario, in response to a triggering operation of a second control on the first page, the second page is displayed, wherein the second control is the access point for the media content set.

[0045] For a created media content set, at least one second control is displayed on the first page. The second control includes the cover, name, and primary identifier of the created media content set. Figure 4 This is an illustration of a first page provided in another scenario. For example... Figure 4 As shown, at least one second control 420 is displayed on the first page 410. The at least one second control 420 corresponds to at least one media content set. The cover of the second control 420 is any image or video frame from the corresponding media content set. The second control 420 also includes a first identifier 430. For example, the first identifier 430 includes the avatars of at least some group members associated with the media content set. The second control 420 also includes the name of the media content set. In response to a click on the second control 420, a second page 440 is displayed. The second page 440 includes the first identifier 430, an upload control 450, and an invitation control 460. Optionally, the first identifier 430 represents an image of a group member associated with the media content set.

[0046] In some cases, in response to the content upload operation on the second page, preset placeholder content is displayed on the second page, wherein the preset placeholder content includes the image processing result of a preset cover image, and the preset cover image is associated with the first media content.

[0047] For example, an upload control is displayed on the second page. In response to a trigger operation on the upload control, the album page of the first account is displayed. A preset prompt message is displayed at a preset location on the album page to indicate that the uploaded media content will be seen by all group members and used to generate a video. In response to a content selection operation on the album page, the selected state of the first media content is displayed. The first media content is the selected video or photo on the album page. In response to a confirmation operation on the first media content, the first media content is uploaded to the server's storage space after attaching the first account's account identifier. During the upload process of the first media content, preset placeholder content for the first media content is displayed. For example, the preset placeholder content is associated with the image processing result of the first media content. Optionally, based on a preset video frame or preset photo corresponding to any first media content as a preset cover image, Gaussian blur processing is performed on each first media content to obtain the preset placeholder content for each first media content. In response to the first media content completing loading, the first media content is displayed on the second page. Optionally, the first media content is displayed on the second page according to the upload time. Optionally, a demarcation marker can be used between newly uploaded media content and historical media content. For example, a horizontal line can be used to separate media content uploaded after the last access time from media content uploaded before the last access time.

[0048] Optionally, in response to an update event, a third identifier is displayed at the location corresponding to the second control. The update event is associated with a media content upload or video generation operation of the first or second account. The third identifier represents an update identifier for the media content set or video generation result. This third identifier can indicate new videos or materials associated with the media content set, allowing users to view them promptly.

[0049] S220. In response to the content selection operation on the second page, display third media content and a first control, wherein the third media content represents media content associated with at least one group member in the media content set.

[0050] The third media content represents at least a portion of the media content selected from the media content set on the second page. Since the media content set includes not only the first media content uploaded by the first account but also the second media content uploaded by the second account, the third media content can be media content associated with at least one dissuading member. That is, the third media content can include at least one of the first and second media content. Selecting third media content from the media content set enriches the sources of the third media content and increases the coverage of the third media content to the shooting scene.

[0051] In one scenario, in response to a content selection action on the second page, a preview panel is displayed at the bottom of the second page. The preview panel displays third-party media content and a first control. The preview panel also indicates to the user the selected third-party media content. If the number of third-party media contents reaches a preset threshold, at least one piece of third-party media content is deleted from the preview panel to remove undesirable media content.

[0052] In another scenario, in response to a content selection operation on the media content set, the third media content, the text input area, and the first control are displayed. In response to an input operation on the text input area, the input text is displayed in the text input area, wherein the input text and the third media content are used to generate the video generation result.

[0053] The input text describes the requirements for generating the video. For example, the input text might include inspiration for video creation and specific needs. The generative model generates a video based on the input text and the third-party media content; the output video is the generated video. Optionally, the generative model can be a deep learning model that extracts partial images from the third-party media content and generates a video based on these extracted images. The extracted partial images are associated with plot information from the third-party media content and the input text. The plot information includes highlight clips, etc.

[0054] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a second page provided in one scenario. For example... Figure 5 As shown, a media content set 520 is displayed on the second page 510. In response to an interactive action on the media content set 520, a preview panel 530 is displayed at the bottom of the second page 510. The preview panel 530 displays a thumbnail of a third media content 540 and a first control 550. The third media content 540 represents the media content in the media content set 520 that is selected (indicated by a bold black border). For example, the first control 550 includes a confirm button, a send button, or a generate button to trigger a video generation operation. Optionally, a text input box 560 may also be displayed in the preview panel.

[0055] S230. In response to a trigger operation on the first control, display the video generation result, which is associated with the third media content.

[0056] In one scenario, in response to a trigger operation on the first control, third-media content is input into the generation model. The generation model extracts highlight segments from the third-media content, determines concatenation logic based on these highlight segments, and combines the concatenation logic with the highlight segments to output the video generation result. Upon completion of video generation, the video generation result is displayed.

[0057] See Figure 5 In response to a trigger action on the first control 550, the third page 570 is displayed. The third page 570 is a subpage corresponding to the third tab item. The third page 570 includes the video generation result 580 and historical videos. Historical videos represent videos generated in the past.

[0058] In another scenario, in response to a trigger operation on the first control, the third media content and the input text are input into the generation model. Under the constraints of the input text, the generation model extracts content fragments from the third media content that match the input text. If the input text includes concatenated logic, the video generation result is output based on the concatenated logic combined with the content fragments. If the input text does not include concatenated logic, concatenated logic is generated based on the content fragments and the input text, and the video generation result is output based on the concatenated logic combined with the content fragments.

[0059] In one technical solution, in response to an interactive operation on a first page, a second page is displayed. The second page includes a first identifier and displays a media content set. The first identifier indicates the group members associated with the media content set. The media content set includes media content uploaded by group members, allowing access to media content shot by different subjects within the shooting scene. In response to a content selection operation on the second page, third media content and a first control are displayed. The third media content can be at least one of the first and second media content. In response to a trigger operation on the first control, a video generation result is displayed, which is associated with the third media content. The video generation method provided by the above technical solution can obtain media content uploaded by different members within a group, enabling users to select not only their own uploaded media content but also media content uploaded by other group members for video generation. This solves the problem that user-shot footage is insufficient to cover the shooting scene, allowing for the use of richer materials to generate videos and improving the video generation effect.

[0060] Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating a group editing method within a video generation approach, illustrating a scenario where, based on the aforementioned scenarios, a method for managing group members is added. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the method includes: S610. In response to the interactive operation on the first page, a second page is displayed. The second page includes a first identifier. The second page is used to display a media content set. The first identifier is used to characterize the group members associated with the media content set. The group members include a first account and at least one second account.

[0061] S620. In response to the member invitation operation on the second page, obtain the invitation link and send the invitation link to the at least one second account, wherein the invitation link is used to access the media content set.

[0062] The process involves triggering a member invitation by interacting with an invitation control. In one scenario, the invitation control is displayed on a second page. In response to the invitation control's triggering action, an invitation link is retrieved based on a second identifier. Optionally, the client stores the invitation links corresponding to each media content set issued by the storage client. Since the invitation link includes a second identifier, the client can obtain the invitation link corresponding to the second identifier based on the matching result between the second identifier and the invitation link. A sharing channel panel is displayed. The sharing channel panel includes applications for sharing invitation links. In response to a selection action in the sharing channel panel, the invitation link is shared with at least one second account through the selected application. The video editing tool is referred to as the first application, and the selected application is referred to as the second application. In response to at least one second account retrieving an invitation link from the second application, the invitation link is copied to the first application to join the group associated with the media content set. Group members within the group associated with the media content set can access the media content set, upload media content to the media content set, and generate videos using content from the media content set.

[0063] It should be noted that the first identifier includes the avatars of group members. Due to page limitations, the first identifier includes the avatars of at least some group members. For newly joined group members, if the number of avatars included in the first identifier does not exceed a preset threshold, their avatar will be added to the first identifier.

[0064] S630. In response to the trigger operation for the first identifier, display the group members, delete control, and invite control, wherein the delete control is used to update the group members, and the invite control is used to trigger a member invite operation.

[0065] For example, in response to a trigger action targeting the first identifier, a member management panel is displayed. The member management panel includes avatars, member names, delete controls, and invitation controls for multiple group members. Optionally, a delete control is displayed at the corresponding position of the group member to accurately delete the corresponding group member. Optionally, friends can be invited to join the group associated with the media content set based on the invitation controls in the member management panel.

[0066] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a second page provided in one scenario. For example... Figure 7 As shown, the second page 710 displays a first identifier 720 and an invitation control 730. In response to a trigger action on the first identifier 720, a member management panel 740 is displayed. The member management panel 740 includes avatars, member names, a delete control 750, and an invitation control 730 for multiple group members.

[0067] Optionally, based on the selection operation of group members in the member association panel, the media content uploaded by the current group member can be obtained based on the account identifier of the current group member and displayed to achieve refined management of media content.

[0068] S640. In response to the trigger operation on the delete control, delete the group member corresponding to the delete control in the group, and delete the second media content uploaded by the group member in the media content set.

[0069] For example, in response to the triggering operation of the delete control, the group member corresponding to the delete control is identified. A first prompt panel is displayed above the second page to prompt the user to confirm whether to delete the group member. In response to the confirmation operation, the second account corresponding to the group member is removed from the group. Second media content uploaded by the second account in the media content set is deleted based on the account identifier of the second account.

[0070] It should be noted that there is no logical relationship between S620 and S630-S640. You can execute S620 after executing S610, or you can execute S630 and S640 after executing S620, or you can execute S630 and S640 after executing S610.

[0071] In one scenario, a technical solution responds to a member invitation action on a second page, retrieves an invitation link, and sends the invitation link to at least one second account, thus enabling a convenient group creation method. Through a triggering action of a first identifier, group members, a delete control, and an invitation control are displayed. Since the delete control is used to update group members and the invitation control is used to trigger member invitation actions, convenient management of group members is achieved.

[0072] Figure 8 This is a flowchart illustrating a video generation method for another scenario, applicable to video editing on the second account side. The method can be executed by a video generation device, which can be implemented in the form of software and / or hardware, or optionally, by an electronic device, such as a mobile terminal, a PC, or a server.

[0073] like Figure 8 As shown, the method includes: S810. Obtain the invitation link sent by the first account, the invitation link being used to access a media content set.

[0074] In some cases, a second account obtains an invitation link from a second application. This invitation link is then copied and opened in the first application. The second application is the one used to share the invitation link. The first application is an application used for editing videos, such as a video editing tool.

[0075] A second notification panel is displayed above the first page of the first application. This second notification panel includes the first account's account identifier and a second identifier, used to prompt the first account to invite a second account to co-create a media content set. The second notification panel also includes a fourth control for confirming the invitation link.

[0076] S820. In response to an interactive operation on the invitation link, a second page is displayed. The second page includes a first identifier, wherein the second page is used to display the media content set, and the first identifier is used to characterize the group members associated with the media content set, the group members including the first account and at least one second account.

[0077] In one scenario, interactions with the invitation link may include triggering actions on a fourth control. In another scenario, interactions with the invitation link may include preset consent gestures to indicate that the second account agrees to co-create a media content set with the first account.

[0078] Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the process of adding group members in a video generation method provided under one scenario. For example... Figure 9 As shown, the first page of the first account displays an invitation control 910. In response to a trigger action on the invitation control 910, the invitation link is copied, and a third prompt panel 920 is displayed. The third prompt panel 920 includes preset text 930, used to prompt for selecting a second application to share the invitation link. After the first account sends the invitation link to the second account's second application via the second application, the second account opens the first application. A second prompt panel 940 is displayed on the second account's first page. The second prompt panel 940 includes a fourth control 950. In response to a trigger action on the fourth control 950, the second page 960 of the second account is displayed. The second page 960 includes an upload control 970.

[0079] S830. In response to the upload operation on the second page, the second media content uploaded by the second account is added to the media content set, and the updated media content set is displayed, wherein the media content set is used to generate a video.

[0080] In one scenario, in response to a trigger action on the upload control, the album page of the second account is displayed. A preset prompt message is displayed in a preset location on the album page, indicating that the uploaded media content will be seen by all group members and used to generate a video. In response to a content selection action on the album page, the selected state of the second media content is displayed. The second media content is the video or photo selected on the album page. In response to a confirmation action on the second media content, the second media content is added to the media content set. For example, the second media content is uploaded to the server-side storage space associated with the media content set after attaching the second account's account identifier.

[0081] During the uploading process of the second media content, preset placeholder content is displayed. For example, the preset placeholder content is associated with the image processing result of the second media content. Optionally, based on a preset video frame or preset photo corresponding to any second media content as a preset cover image, Gaussian blur processing is applied to each second media content to obtain the preset placeholder content for each second media content.

[0082] In response to the completion of loading the second media content, the second media content is displayed on the second page. Optionally, the second media content is displayed on the second page according to its upload time. Optionally, a demarcation marker is used between newly uploaded media content and historical media content. For example, a horizontal line can be used to separate media content uploaded after the last access time from media content uploaded before the last access time.

[0083] Optionally, if new media content has been uploaded by a first account and at least one second account since the last access time, the new media content can be grouped and displayed on the horizontal line according to account identifier and upload time.

[0084] Optionally, in response to a trigger operation for the first identifier, the group member and a third control are displayed, wherein the third control is used for the second account to leave the group associated with the media content set. In response to a trigger operation for the third control, a status option is displayed, wherein the status option is used to configure the status of the second media content associated with the second account that has left the group.

[0085] For example, in response to a trigger action targeting the first identifier, a member management panel is displayed. The member management panel includes avatars, member names, and a third control for multiple group members. The third control is used for a second account to exit the group associated with the media content set. In response to a trigger action targeting the third control, status options are displayed. For example, the status options configure the simultaneous deletion of uploaded second media content when exiting the group. If the status option is a first status value, the second account's member name and the first status value are sent to the server, which removes the second account from the group and deletes the second media content uploaded by the second account from the media content set. If the status option is a second status value, the second account's member name and the second status value are sent to the server, which removes the second account from the group.

[0086] In one technical solution, an invitation link sent by a first account is obtained. This invitation link is used to access a media content set. In response to an interaction with the invitation link, a second page is displayed. The second page includes a first identifier, which displays the media content set. The first identifier indicates the group members associated with the media content set. The media content set includes media content uploaded by group members. This enables at least one second account related to the shooting scene required for the invitation video to be generated to jointly create the media content set, obtaining media content shot by different subjects in the shooting scene. In response to an upload operation on the second page, the second media content uploaded by the second account is added to the media content set, and the updated media content set is displayed. This media content set is used to generate the video, allowing different group members to update the media content set. Furthermore, during the video creation process, users can not only select their own uploaded media content but also media content uploaded by other group members to generate the video. This solves the problem that user-shot footage is difficult to cover the shooting scene, allowing for the use of richer footage to generate videos and improving the video generation effect.
