Interface for changing a media sequence

Abstract

A sequence of media items may be presents. Based on selection of media items for potential inclusion into the sequence of media items, the selected media items may be presented apart from the sequence of media items. One or more of the selected media items may be inserted into a location in the sequence of media items.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A system for presenting an interface for changing a media sequence, the system comprising:
 one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
 present a first view of media items, the first view of media items including a media sequence element, the media sequence element providing a graphical representation of a sequence of media items, the sequence of media items including media items ordered in a sequence, the media sequence element including media icons that graphically represent the media items, the media icons arranged in the media sequence element based on ordering of the media items in the sequence of media items; 
 obtain a selection of a set of media items for potential inclusion into the sequence of media items, the set of media items including one or more selected media items; and 
 before modification of the sequence of media items, present a second view of media items, the second view of media items including an insertion set element and the media sequence element, the insertion set element providing a graphical representation of the set of media items selected for potential inclusion into the sequence of media items, the insertion set element including one or more selected media icons that graphically represent the one or more selected media items, the insertion set element providing an intermediate or a stage area from which the user confirms identity and/or ordering of the set of media items to be inserted into the sequence of media items. 
   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the second view of the media items further includes:
 a location indicator among the media icons arranged in the media sequence element to identify a location in the sequence of media items into which at least one of the one or more selected media items is to be inserted; and   a preceding location button and a following location button, wherein the location in the sequence of media items into which the at least one of the one or more selected media items is to be inserted is changed based on user interaction with the preceding location button and/or the following location button.   
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein a location in the sequence of media items into which a given selected media item is to be inserted is selected based on drag and drop of a corresponding selected media icon into a corresponding location in the media sequence element. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein all of the one or more selected media items graphically represented by the one or more selected media icons in the insertion set element are inserted into a location in the sequence of media items identified by a location indicator. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the ordering of the set of media items to be inserted into the sequence of media items is changed via user interaction with the one or more selected media icons in the insertion set element to change ordering of the one or more selected media icons in the insertion set element. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 5 , wherein initial ordering of the one or more selected media icons in the insertion set element is determined based on an order in which the one or more selected media items are selected for potential inclusion into the sequence of media items. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the media icons include thumbnail tiles of the media items. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the insertion set element is positioned below the media sequence element in the second view of media items. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the first view of media items is modified into the second view of media items via addition of the insertion set element. 
     
     
         10 . A method for presenting an interface for changing a media sequence, the method performed by a computing system including one or more processors, the method comprising:
 presenting, by the computing system, a first view of media items, the first view of media items including a media sequence element, the media sequence element providing a graphical representation of a sequence of media items, the sequence of media items including media items ordered in a sequence, the media sequence element including media icons that graphically represent the media items, the media icons arranged in the media sequence element based on ordering of the media items in the sequence of media items;   obtaining, by the computing system, a selection of a set of media items for potential inclusion into the sequence of media items, the set of media items including one or more selected media items; and   before modification of the sequence of media items, presenting, by the computing system, a second view of media items, the second view of media items including an insertion set element and the media sequence element, the insertion set element providing a graphical representation of the set of media items selected for potential inclusion into the sequence of media items, the insertion set element including one or more selected media icons that graphically represent the one or more selected media items, the insertion set element providing an intermediate or a stage area from which the user confirms identity and/or ordering of the set of media items to be inserted into the sequence of media items.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the second view of the media items further includes:
 a location indicator among the media icons arranged in the media sequence element to identify a location in the sequence of media items into which at least one of the one or more selected media items is to be inserted; and   a preceding location button and a following location button, wherein the location in the sequence of media items into which the at least one of the one or more selected media items is to be inserted is changed based on user interaction with the preceding location button and/or the following location button.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein a location in the sequence of media items into which a given selected media item is to be inserted is selected based on drag and drop of a corresponding selected media icon into a corresponding location in the media sequence element. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein all of the one or more selected media items graphically represented by the one or more selected media icons in the insertion set element are inserted into a location in the sequence of media items identified by a location indicator. 
     
     
         14 .
