Solution Overview

Problem

Existing social media platforms lack mechanisms to effectively showcase fan contributions, providing limited interactivity and recognition for user-generated content based on artist's work.

Innovation Solution

A method and device that allow users to mark or spotlight fan-generated videos with a tag, displaying these videos on the artist's profile page, enhancing visibility and acknowledging fan contributions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If traditional video interaction features (liking, commenting, sharing) are used, then basic user engagement is achieved, but fan contributions are not effectively showcased or recognized

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefan contribution recognitionVSAvoidfan creativity visibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the video interaction system by introducing a distinct 'marking' feature that separates fan contribution recognition from traditional liking/commenting/sharing functions. The marking feature creates a dedicated mechanism that segments and highlights fan-created videos separately, allowing them to be showcased on the artist's profile page rather than being lost in general video feeds.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent adds a new dimension to video interaction by introducing the marking/spotlighting feature that operates beyond the traditional like-comment-share paradigm. This creates a hierarchical dimension where marked videos are elevated to the artist's profile page, adding a vertical layer of recognition that wasn't present in conventional social media interactions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Adaptability or versatility

If fan-generated videos are displayed without a specific mechanism, then platform content volume increases, but interactivity and user connection are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveplatform interactivityVSAvoidinteraction mechanism complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The marking feature serves multiple functions simultaneously: it recognizes fan contributions, showcases them on the artist's profile, enables direct interaction between fans and artists, and creates a curated collection of fan works. This multi-functional approach increases platform adaptability without requiring separate complex systems for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system enables artists to actively curate and manage their own profile pages by selecting which fan videos to mark and display. This self-service approach allows artists to control their own content presentation and engagement strategy without requiring complex platform-mediated matching or recommendation algorithms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Quantity of substance

If all fan videos are displayed equally, then content diversity is maintained, but key contributions lose visibility

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo content volumeVSAvoidcontent curation quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by creating a distinguished marking/spotlighting feature that selectively highlights specific fan videos on the artist's profile page. This localized enhancement gives premium visibility to selected contributions while maintaining the broader ecosystem of all fan videos on the platform, creating quality differentiation without excluding quantity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary curation by allowing artists to pre-select and mark fan videos they wish to showcase before these videos are displayed on their profile pages. This preliminary action enables quality control and intentional curation, ensuring that only deserving fan contributions receive the enhanced visibility of the marking feature.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a device, and a computer readable medium for marking a video. In the solution, a user may view a first video with a tag indicating that the first video is marked by a first user, where the first video is generated by a second user based on a first media content being created by the first user. The page for representing the first video may be switched to a profile page of the first user based on an operation associated with the tag, where the profile page of the first user may display one or more videos marked by the first user. As such, a tag may be displayed associated with the first video, so that an acknowledgement of the first user to the first video may be viewed, and thus the contribution of the second user is celebrated.
