Abstract

A method of creating and securely sharing creatives is described. The method includes the steps of accessing a central processing environment, requesting at least one recording of at least a portion of an audio transmission generated from a communication device, generating at least one audio asset, adding the audio asset to a pool of related assets stored in a vault connected to the central processing environment, selecting the generated audio asset and at least one other related asset from the pool of related assets to form a creative, then requesting delivery of the creative to another communication device, and finally delivering the creative to the other communication device. The method is performed in part by a creative composition engine, which is also described. The engine includes a central processing environment having a processor, a digital recorder and a digital asset storage vault.

Claims

1. A method of sharing access to at least one creative, comprising the steps of:

providing a database of electronic media assets, wherein each media asset includes an associated profile that provides properties of the associated electronic media asset, including text searchable information regarding the associated electronic media asset'"'"'s content, wherein the electronic media assets are imported from third party databases over a public network;

creating a workspace location wherein a plurality of users have access over the public network to contents of the workspace location and can modify at least a portion of the contents;

creating an address link correspondent to the workspace location

assigning an attribute to a group of the users having access to the workspace location;

providing a first telecommunication device;

providing the address link to the first telecommunication device;

receiving a request, from at least one user of the group of users using the first telecommunication device, for access to the workspace location via a central processing environment;

verifying the attribute of the at least one user of the first telecommunication device by the central processing environment;

recording the at least one user and saving the recording in the workspace location as an audio asset;

parsing text from the audio asset, wherein parsing the text comprises breaking the text into individual syllables, words, or phrases by;

examining any whitespace between words and punctuation to identify individual words; and

analyzing grammatical rules to identify phrases;

querying the database of electronic media assets and comparing the parsed text and the at least one user'"'"'s identity to the associated profiles of the electronic media assets to identify at least one electronic media asset with a profile that matches the query;

providing access to the audio asset stored in the workspace location and the at least one electronic media asset to a second one of the users via the network responsive to the verification of the attribute;

combining by the second user the audio asset with the at least one electronic media asset to form a creative and storing the creative in the workspace location;

recording an interaction of at least one other user of the group with the creative; and

synchronizing the interaction with the group, wherein information of the interaction is displayed to the group as information associated with the creative.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the attribute is an encryption key.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the attribute is a user created password.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the interaction includes editing the creative.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the interaction includes adding comments to the creative.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the attribute terminates access to the creative after a predetermined time.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising providing access to an asset associated with the creative.
