Abstract: Method to generate frames on demand starts with a system receiving a request for a media content item from a client device. The request includes a media content identification and a main user identification. The system transmits to the client device a playlist including a first set of media content item segments. While the first set of media content item segments is being displayed on the client device, the system renders a second set of media content item segments using the media content identification and the main user identification. Rendering the second set of media content item segments can include rendering a main user avatar based on the main user identification and incorporating the main user avatar into the second set of media content item segments. The system then updates the playlist to include the second set of media content item segments. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.

Abstract: Method starts with a processor causing an electronic program guide (EPG) to be displayed on a first client device that is associated with a first user. Processor detects a selection of a selectable item included in the EPG associated with a media content item by the first user. Processor identifies a second user that is connected to the first user on a communication platform. Processor retrieves a main user identification associated with the first user and a secondary user identification associated with the second user and generates a request for the media content item including media content identification, main user identification, and secondary user identification. Processor then receives a playlist associated with the media content item that comprises media content item segments including first avatar associated with first user and second avatar associated with second user. Other embodiments are disclosed herein.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to an augmented expression system to generate and cause display of a specially configured interface to present an augmented reality perspective. The augmented expression system receives image and video data of a user and tracks facial landmarks of the user based on the image and video data, in real-time to generate and present a 3-dimensional (3D) bitmoji of the user.
