Abstract

Tools, methods and systems for identifying coordinated actions in a flowchart representing a multimedia experience. These include displaying a graphical view of a flowchart representing a multimedia experience and defining, within the flowchart, a cell including a primary action configured to trigger playback of a primary media asset and secondary actions configured to trigger playback of secondary media assets, wherein each of the secondary actions has a timing coordinated with the primary action. The tools, methods and systems further include displaying a representation of the primary action, displaying representations of the secondary actions in chronological order according to their timing, and visually associating each of the representations of the secondary actions with the representation of the primary action.
