Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 10:
11. A computer-implemented system, comprising:
computer memory;
control circuitry configured to:
identify a subset of segments of video content having attributes that match attributes of a user profile, wherein the attributes of the user profile are stored in the computer memory;
for each respective segment of the identified subset of segments, assign a plot element label to the respective segment, wherein each plot element label corresponds to a plot element of a plurality of plot elements of the video content, and wherein the assigning comprises;
identify, for each respective segment, an object type of an object that appears within the respective segment;
determine, for each respective segment, a timepoint associated with the respective segment in relation to a total runtime of the video content; and
determine the plot element label based at least in part on a relationship between the identified object type of the object and the determined timepoint in relation to the total runtime of the video content;

generate a trailer of the video content by arranging the segments of the subset of segments in order based on their respective assigned plot element labels; and
transmit the trailer of the video content for display to a device associated with the user profile.
