A New Video Player Experience

So I created a slight twist to the everyday video player for the music platform I am working on. I wanted to change the user experience a bit by putting the controls in the middle of the screen.

While the video is playing, the user will simply tap the screen to bring up the controls, tap in the middle of the screen to pause or resume the video, and can use the thumbnail to fast forward or rewind the video all while showing a preview inside the thumbnail. This experience will be the same for the web full screen as well as the other mobile devices.
