Systems and methods disclosed create one or more digital media presentations based on impact values. In particular, in one or more embodiments, systems and methods generate impact values based on a change in a measure of energy associated with digital audio content over time. For instance, systems and methods generate impact values by calculating a difference in a measure of energy over time in relation to the amount of energy at a particular time period. Based on the generated impact values, systems and methods identify transition points in the digital audio content. Specifically, systems and methods utilize a decaying masking threshold to identify transition points from generated impact values. Moreover, systems and method utilize identified transition points to modify digital visual content displayed in conjunction with the digital audio content.
