1 . An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to:

determine at least one desired media content to be captured;

cause information regarding a request to be transmitted to at least two media capturing devices to capture media content at distinct positions; and

receive information regarding the captured media content captured by the media capturing devices.

2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the information regarding the request comprises augmented reality data.

3 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the augmented reality data comprises an augmented reality map.

4 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the augmented reality data comprises a targeting indicator configured to provide a user with an indication when the user has an appropriate view of a scene to be captured.

5 . The apparatus of claim 1 further configured to:

align the captured media contents along a unified timeline; and

compile a composite media content comprising portions of the captured media contents.

6 . The apparatus of claim 5 further configured to select portions of any one of the captured media contents so as to create a composite media content including at least one of a multi-camera zoom portion and a multi-camera panning portion.

7 . A method comprising:

determining, via a processor, at least one desired media content to be captured;

causing information regarding a request to be transmitted to at least two media capturing devices to capture media content at distinct positions; and

receiving information regarding the captured media content captured by the media capturing devices.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the information regarding the request comprises augmented reality data.

9 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the augmented reality data comprises an augmented reality map.

10 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the augmented reality data comprises a targeting indicator configured to provide a user with an indication when the user has an appropriate view of a scene to be captured.

11 . The method of claim 7 further comprising:

aligning the captured media contents along a unified timeline; and

compiling a composite media content comprising portions of the captured media contents.

12 . The method of claim 11 further comprising selecting portions of any one of the captured media contents so as to create a composite media content including at least one of a multi-camera zoom portion and a multi-camera panning portion.

13 . A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program instructions stored therein, the computer-readable program instructions comprising program instructions configured to cause an apparatus to perform a method comprising:

determining at least one desired media content to be captured;

causing information regarding a request to be transmitted to at least two media capturing devices to capture media content at distinct positions; and

receiving information regarding the captured media content captured by the media capturing devices.

14 . The computer program product of claim 13 , wherein the information regarding the request comprises augmented reality data.

15 . The computer program product of claim 13 , wherein the augmented reality data comprises an augmented reality map.

16 . The computer program product of claim 13 , wherein the augmented reality data comprises a targeting indicator configured to provide a user with an indication when the user has an appropriate view of a scene to be captured.

17 . The computer program product of claim 13 further configured to cause an apparatus to perform a method comprising:

aligning the captured media contents along a unified timeline; and

compiling a composite media content comprising portions of the captured media contents.

18 . The computer program product of claim 17 further configured to cause an apparatus to perform a method comprising selecting portions of any one of the captured media contents so as to create a composite media content including at least one of a multi-camera zoom portion and a multi-camera panning portion.
