Abstract

A content-creation tool includes a processor and a memory. The processor is configured to receive a first video clip and a second video clip, a respective first and second metadata-item thereof being set to a respective first and second metadata-value. The memory stores video-editing software that includes a timeline interface and instructions that, when executed by the processor, control the processor to: add the first video clip to the timeline interface as a first timeline-track that retains the first metadata-value; add the second video clip to the timeline interface as a second timeline-track that retains the second metadata-value; and generate a frame sequence that includes a plurality of video frames. Each video frame is a frame of, or a frame derived from, one of (i) the first timeline-track, (ii) the second timeline-track, and (iii) a composited time-line-track composited from at least one of the first and second timeline-tracks.
