Abstract
The present invention provides a unique system and method for facilitating browsing, sorting, clustering, and filtering any number of media objects grouped together in a quick and easy manner. In particular, the invention involves annotating the media objects, which have been clustered, sorted, and/or filtered en masse rather than individually, with metadata. The media objects may be selected by a user and annotated with a plurality of metadata as desired by a user in order to optimize utilization of the media objects. The media objects may also be combined and/or mixed in any number of ways to create new media objects. Media objects may include an audio component, a visual component, a portion thereof, and/or any combination thereof.

22. A system that facilitates working with media objects comprising:
-
one or more selected media objects;
one or more bin components that facilitate creating a work space for the selected media objects, the one or more bin components comprising at least one selected media object; and
a media analyzer-annotation component that analyzes the selected media objects and extracts one or more characteristics common to the selected media objects, generates metadata based at least in part on the characteristics common to the selected media objects and annotates the selected media objects with the metadata. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A method of working with media objects comprising:
-
selecting a subset of the media objects;
creating at least one bin component;
moving the subset of media objects to the at least one bin component; and
annotating the subset of media objects with metadata. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 46)

45. A data packet adapted to be transmitted between two or more computer processes facilitating visual annotation of media objects, the data packet comprising:
information associated with a cluster of media objects related to at least one bin component, the cluster being based, at least in part, upon metadata associated with the at least one bin component and newly generated metadata associated with the media objects.

47. A system that facilitates working with media objects, comprising:
-
means for selecting a subset of the media objects;
means for creating at least one bin component;
means for moving the subset of media objects to the at least one bin component; and
means for annotating the subset of media objects with metadata.
