Abstract

A customized highlight sequence depicting an event, and based on a user's personal characteristics, interests, and/or preferences, is generated and presented. The event can be a sporting event, entertainment event, and/or the like. For example, in the context of sporting events, a determination is made as to what types of sports, teams, leagues, players, plays, and/or the like are of interest to the user. In at least one embodiment, the amount of time available to the user can be obtained, so that the length of the highlight sequence can be tailored to the available time. A customized highlight sequence is then generated and presented, containing those specific portions of the sporting event that are likely to be of interest, arranged in a manner that is likely to be entertaining to the user and comports with the time restrictions.
