SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SELECTIVE APPLICATION FUNCTION OF BACKGROUND MUSIC INTO MOVING PICTURE

The present invention relates to a system and method for providing a selection setting function for video background music, and more particularly, to a system and method for a viewer to select an item from a background music list.

One-person media is a communication platform where individuals can directly produce and share various contents, and refers to a new type of communication channel. Unlike the existing one-way traditional media channels, the one-person media has greatly increased interactivity and interaction. In particular, since it can communicate in real time, the speed of information sharing and dissemination is fast and has a great ripple effect.

As the Internet became popular with the development of information and communication technology, individuals were able to freely communicate their stories within the Internet space. The advent of smartphones in such an environment provided an environment in which various contents could be easily consumed. Smartphones, which have become a necessity for modern people, have greatly contributed to the spread of single-person media. The expansion of services such as YouTube, Twitch, and Afreeca TV, which allow users to easily upload videos through the Internet and share them with others, and the relaxation of technological barriers to entry also contributed to the spread of single-person media.

On the other hand, video materials have been understood as the domain of professional video material producers, but with the development of smartphones, even ordinary individuals can easily produce and distribute video materials, and various video production software (so-called applications) have been produced and used widely. . Video production software includes a function to select and insert various background music, beyond creating a video clip or inserting subtitles using a camera.

The background music is considered as an auxiliary tool of the video. Therefore, a single media user who produces a video often inserts background music that is considered to be suitable for his/her video into the video. However, such a conventional video production method has a limit in satisfying the desires of various viewers who want to select specific music for the video to be viewed from the viewer's point of view.

For example, in the case of a video in which the background music does not affect the content of the video, such as a home training video, a cooking video with caption-type explanation, or an unboxing video, viewers can directly listen to the music they want to hear. If you can watch the video by selecting , the viewing satisfaction will increase.
