Patent attributes
Techniques are provided herein for generating and providing micro-previews of edited content (e.g., a movie trailer) associated with media content (e.g., a motion picture). In accordance with at least one embodiment, a movie trailer may be obtained. A micro-preview may be played from the movie trailer by modifying the start time and playback duration of the movie trailer. In some embodiments, the start time and duration may be customized based on information associated with the user. While viewing the micro-preview, the user can be provided options to select an attribute associated with the movie trailer (e.g., director, actor, etc.) and selection options may be provided corresponding to motion pictures that share the attribute. A new movie may be selected from the selection options and a new micro-preview may begin to play based on customizing a corresponding movie trailer.
