24 alternatives to Feeling-based movie search
My dad and I had a little idea to build a movie site, where the movies are tagged by what feelings they evoke instead of just genres. This was influenced by how playlists are tagged on 8tracks, and how game levels are tagged in LittleBigPlanet. We threw something functional together, and would like to get some feedback on the idea/site. It allows anyone to tag movies with a variety of adjectives, and for a user to search by them. This sort of tagging would allow us to find movies that are alike, a user to track which types of movies he/she likes, and offer a recommendation system…

Hello HN Over the New Year's break, I created semanticvideosearch.com. This can search any video based on meaning and context. I would love to get your feedback on it. What should I change and what can be improved? The preprocessed videos can be search very quickly, while the youtube video links take some time (yt videos also have a upper duration limit due to compute issues). I intend to add search based on the frames of the video soon. I would love to know your thoughts on the demo and any suggestions for improvements. Thanks! PS: the inspiration to create this was to get the 2 mins of…

Hi Hacker News, I'm excited to share a project I've been passionately working on in my spare time: AI Movie Finder (https://www.aimoviefinder.com). The idea was born out of a simple, yet frequent, frustration: having a movie on the tip of my tongue but being unable to recall the title. All I could remember were fragments – a specific scene, a snippet of dialogue, the general plot, or even just the mood it evoked. Traditional search engines often fell short with these kinds of abstract queries. So, I decided to build a solution. AI Movie Finder uses a natural language processing…
