Solution Overview

Problem

Existing video editing applications lack the ability to meet the diverse creative needs of users, failing to provide efficient and interactive editing templates that enhance user engagement and resource utilization.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that detect specified times, such as anniversaries, and recommend editing templates associated with those times, providing prompt information and reminders to users to edit multimedia resources using these templates, thereby increasing user interaction and efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If video editing applications provide basic editing functions, then users can perform simple edits, but the applications cannot meet diversified creative needs of users

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecreative needs satisfactionVSAvoidapplication functionality
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-prepares multiple themed template packages (romantic, funny, artistic, etc.) with complete editing configurations including filters, transitions, music, and text overlays. These templates are stored ready-for-use in the application, allowing users to instantly apply complex editing styles without manually configuring each parameter, thus providing diversified creative options while maintaining simple user operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The editing templates are designed to be universally applicable across different video content types and scenarios. Each template package contains multiple templates that can handle various editing needs (birthday celebrations, travel vlogs, food reviews, etc.), allowing a single template system to serve multiple diverse creative functions and meet different user needs without requiring separate specialized tools.

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

2Adaptability or versatility

If the system provides more editing templates, then user creative options increase, but user engagement and template selection efficiency decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetemplate varietyVSAvoidtemplate selection efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The extensive template library is segmented into distinct themed packages (romantic templates, funny templates, artistic templates, etc.), with each package containing templates optimized for specific scenarios. This segmentation allows users to quickly navigate to the relevant category based on their current needs, rather than searching through all templates, thus maintaining high template variety while improving selection efficiency through organized categorization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where template usage data, user preferences, and engagement patterns are analyzed to dynamically adjust template recommendations. Frequently used templates are prominently displayed, while less used templates are refined or retired. This feedback loop ensures the template library remains diverse and relevant while helping users quickly find suitable templates based on proven effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Ease of operation

If the system recommends templates based on specified times, then user engagement increases, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser engagementVSAvoidtime detection and recommendation system
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically detects specified times (such as anniversaries, holidays, or special dates) and autonomously selects and recommends appropriate template packages without requiring user configuration. The time detection mechanism works in the background, and the recommendation engine automatically matches detected times with suitable templates, providing engaged users with relevant templates while keeping the interface simple and requiring minimal user input.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Disclosed in the embodiments of the present disclosure are a method and apparatus for multimedia resource editing scene, and a device and a storage medium. The method comprises: detecting whether a current time matches a specified time; in response to determining that the current time matches the specified time, presenting prompt information of a target editing template; where the target editing template is associated with a first multimedia resource; content of the first multimedia resource belongs to a content category associated with the specified time; the target editing template instructs to edit a to-be-edited multimedia material into a second multimedia resource in a target editing way; the target editing way is an editing way used by the first multimedia resource; and the prompt information is presentation information of the first multimedia resource.
