Abstract
A software application for mobile devices enables users to easily create a fully-edited short video by combining video clips of various lengths to form a final video that resembles a Hollywood-style, professionally edited video clip. The videos are automatically edited to the music cuts using pre-programmed storyboards and transitions that align with the user's thematic selection. There are few steps involved in the process making for a user-friendly experience. The professional style video clip is produced on a user's phone in only 45 seconds and can then be shared with friends via email, YouTube, Facebook and other forms of social media.
