Abstract:
Embodiments for automatically and programmatically generating content trailers in a crowdsourced manner are described herein. An embodiment operates by receiving interactions with streaming content performed by a plurality users who consumed the content, wherein the interactions are associated with a landing frame of the content. A point value is assigned to each of the interactions, and the point values of the interactions are accumulated for each of the landing frames. A subset of the interactions for a particular one of the landing frames that exceed a threshold point value is determined. From the subset, the interaction with the highest accumulated point value is selected and a trailer for the content is generated based on the selected interaction. The content and the trailer are provided.
