Media-production system with social media content interface feature
First Claim
1. A method for use in connection with a computing system comprising a video-production system (VPS) configured to facilitate production of a video program, the method comprising:
- accessing, by the computing system, data associated with a program schedule for the video program, wherein the program schedule is an outline of the video program and includes a plurality of records, each record corresponding to a respective portion of the video program, wherein the VPS is configured to process the plurality of records, and wherein processing a record of the plurality of records comprises performing one or more operations corresponding to the respective portion of the video program;
based on the accessed data, selecting, by the computing system, a social media (SM) content item;
providing, by the computing system, a user interface that (i) outputs the selected SM content item, and (ii) facilitates modifying the program schedule such that the program schedule refers to the selected SM content item;
based on the modified program schedule, generating, by the computing system, a video program that includes the selected SM content item; and
transmitting, by the computing system, to an end-user device, the generated video program for presentation of the generated video program on the end-user device.
