1. A system for framing videos based on motion, the system comprising:
one or more physical processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
obtain video information defining a spherical video, the spherical video captured by an image capture device, the spherical video having a progress length, the spherical video including spherical visual content viewable as a function of progress through the progress length; project the spherical visual content onto a plane using a stereographic projection to generate a top-down little planet view;
determine a direction of motion of the image capture device during capture of the spherical video based on an optical flow of the spherical visual content projected onto the plane using the stereographic projection, wherein the projection of the spherical visual content using the stereographic projection reduces perspective effect for determination of the direction of motion of the image capture device and the direction of motion determined based on the spherical visual content projected onto the plane using the stereographic projection includes a horizontal direction of motion of the image capture device; and
determine framing of the spherical video as a function of progress through the progress length of the spherical video based on the direction of motion of the image capture device during the capture of the spherical video, the framing of the spherical video defining positioning of a viewing window for the spherical visual content, wherein the framing of the spherical video is determined based on the direction of motion of the image capture device during the capture of the spherical video to position the viewing window in the direction of motion of the image capture device.
