[0001] The present disclosure generally relates to message communications. More
particularly but not exclusively, the present disclosure relates to generating animated
video message based on user recorded video.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Messaging services/applications allow users to communicate without being
physically present at the same location. The messaging services allow users to
communicate via a number of communication mechanisms, such as telephony, email,
multimedia messaging, and instant messaging. One or more of these communication
mechanisms allow a user to record and send video messages to another user.
[0003] However, such conventional messaging platforms/applications fail to provide
modification and/or customization to said video recorded message and send the
message as originally recorded. Therefore, such platforms/applications fail to provide
interactive user experience to the user. Accordingly, there exists a need in the art to
provide a solution which overcomes the above-mentioned problems.

message. This flowchart is provided for illustration purposes, and embodiments are
intended to include or otherwise cover any methods or procedures for implementing
the project workflow using blockchain. Fig. 3 is described in reference to Figs. 1-2.
[0046] At step 302, the method comprises receiving, a recorded video message from

[0050] The illustrated steps are set out to explain the exemplary embodiments shown,
and it should be anticipated that ongoing technological development will change the
manner in which particular functions are performed. These examples are presented
herein for purposes of illustration, and not limitation. Further, the boundaries of the
functional building blocks have been arbitrarily defined herein for the convenience
of the description. Alternative boundaries can be defined so long as the specified
functions and relationships thereof are appropriately performed.
[0051] The above explained embodiments may be better understood from following
example:
A user wishes to say “I LOVE YOU” to someone. Accordingly, the user
records a video message saying the phrase “I LOVE YOU” with the desired
expression. However, said conventional recorded video message may not be able to
make user communication interactive. Therefore, the processor 212 may take the
recorded video message as an input and process in a manner as disclosed above to
generate an animated video message. Specifically, the processor 212 may identify the
phonemes associated with phrase “I LOVE YOU” and determine the corresponding
facial motion data. For example, the processor 212 may identify “opening of a mouth
for pronouncing ‘I’”, “lowering the chin while opening the mouth for pronouncing
‘LOVE’”, and “a tightening of lips for pronouncing ‘U’”. The processor 212 may also
extract facial information and emotional information of the user from the video
component of the video recorded message. The processor 212 may then generate a
graphical representation of the user based on the extracted facial and emotional
information. For example, the processor 212 may generate an emoji of the user with
an expression of “happiness”, which may be determined based on the video content.
Now the processor 212 may integrate the user facial motion data with the graphical
representation of the user to animate the generate an animated graphical
representation, e.g., an animated emoji. Further, the processor 212 may integrate the
audio component with the animated representation of the user to generate the
animated video message i.e., an animated emoji of the user saying, “I LIKE YOU”.
In some embodiments, the embodiments as discussed above, may also reduce the size
15
of overall video message. Further, the method and system as disclosed enhance the
user experience while sharing video messages and make the communication
interesting and interactive.
[0052] In this manner, the system and method describe in the present disclosure may
generate an animated video message based on recorded video message. The system
and method enable efficiently and accurately display of the emotions and expression
of a user in an interactive and interesting way.
[0053] Alternatives (including equivalents, extensions, variations, deviations, etc., of
those described herein) will be apparent to persons skilled in the relevant art(s) based
on the teachings contained herein. Such alternatives fall within the scope and spirit of
the disclosed embodiments.

implementing embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. A computerreadable storage medium refers to any type of physical memory on which information
or data readable by a processor may be stored. Thus, a computer-readable storage
medium may store instructions for execution by one or more processors, including
instructions for causing the processor(s) to perform steps or stages consistent with the
