STORY TEMPLATE STRUCTURES ASSOCIATED WITH STORY ENHANCING CONTENT AND RULES

摘要

Story events may be obtained from a media collection from which a structured story may be generated. Story template structures are provided that may include template content which may convey one or more well-known abstract meanings, such as emotions or popular media themes (e.g., movies). The story template structures may also include template rules that may ensure the story events are formatted in a manner substantially consistent with the well-known abstract meanings intended to be conveyed. The story events obtained from the media collection may be organized within the story template structures so that the template rules are applied to the events and the well-known abstract meanings are associated with the events. This ensures that the story events in the structured story may be presented in a coherent manner that conveys the desired abstract meanings for particular story events.
