1. A method for generating content corresponding to an event, comprising:

  • defining a plurality of sub-events of the event, wherein the plurality of sub-events include a plurality of occurrences that may occur within and during the event;

    identifying one or more actual occurrences occurring during the event;

    classifying at least one of the one or more actual occurrences as one or more active sub-events;

    monitoring behavior of one or more users to determine interest of the one or more users in the one or more active sub-events, wherein the monitoring comprises;

    obtaining at least one of line of sight data and gesture data for the one or more users from one or more sensors positioned separate from the one or more users and to capture at least one of the line of sight data and the gesture data for the one or more users; and

    determining that the one or more users are observing the one or more active sub-events based on at least one of the line of sight data and the gesture data, wherein the line of sight data is based on a tracked gaze of the one or more users and the gesture data is based on a tracked gesture of the one of more users toward a particular location in a venue where the one or more active sub-events are occurring;

    linking, based on the determining, each of the one or more users to a corresponding active sub-event that the one or more users have been determined to be observing;

    generating content for the one or more active sub-events;

    wherein the content comprises a description that is generated in response to and describes an actual activity occurring in real time in the one or more active sub-events, and a video accompanying the description;

    wherein the one or more users are directly observing the actual activity;

    wherein the generating of the content for the one or more active sub-events comprises;

    retrieving and analyzing details of the activity occurring in real time in the one or more active sub-events;

    automatically generating the description of the activity occurring in real time in the one or more active sub-events based on the retrieved and analyzed details, wherein the description comprises a verbal audio description of the actual activity that the one or more users are observing; and

    automatically generating the video accompanying the description, wherein the video includes at least one of a replay from one or more previous events and a video of the activity occurring in real time in the one or more active sub-events, and wherein the video is modified to include at least one of highlighted and deemphasized portions; and

    outputting to each of the one or more users, the content of the corresponding active sub-event that the one or more users have been determined to be observing in an audio and video stream;

    wherein the steps of the method are performed by a computer system comprising a memory and at least one processor coupled to the memory.
