1. A system comprising:
a non-transitory memory storing an executable code;
a hardware processor configured to execute the executable code to:
receive a media content;
divide the media content into a plurality of shots, each of the plurality of shots including a plurality of frames of the media content, wherein the media content is divided into the plurality of shots based on a first similarity between the plurality of frames, and wherein the first similarity between the plurality of frames of each of the plurality of shots is one of a same character, a same setting, a same style, or a same theme;
determine a plurality of sequential shots of the plurality of shots to form a first sub-scene; and
identify each of the plurality of sequential shots with a corresponding beginning time code and a corresponding ending time code, wherein the beginning time code of a first shot in the plurality of sequential shots corresponds to a beginning time code of the first sub-scene, and the ending time code of a final shot in the plurality of sequential shots corresponds to an ending time code of the first sub-scene.
