1. A method for presenting a coordinated video presentation, the method comprising:
- displaying first video content in a first video session within a first area on a display, the first area occupying less than all of the display;
while displaying the first video content in the first area, causing the first area to traverse a first trajectory on the display until the first area is in a predetermined spatial relationship to a second area on the display corresponding to a second video session, wherein the first area is abutting or overlapping the second area; and
,while the first area is abutting or overlapping the second area depicting a first video object from the first video content in the first area, transitioning the first video object to the second video session and subsequently depicting the first video object from the second video content in the second area.

Abstract
A coordinated video presentation comprises a plurality of sets of video content that is displayed in display areas on a display. The display areas each correspond to a video session playing one of the sets of video content. The display areas move on trajectories. Video objects can move among the video sessions. The display may display controls or other interactive graphical user interface elements. A user can interact with the interactive elements that are not obstructed by the coordinated video session.
