2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user of the plurality of users interacts with the broadcasted media content using their respective media device.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user of the plurality of users interacts with the broadcasted media content by inserting a clip of media content into the broadcasted media content.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising automatically causing, without user interaction, contributor metadata associated with the broadcasted media content to include the collaborator information.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving an indication from the content creator to associate the collaborator information with the broadcasted media content.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising inserting the collaborator information into collaborator metadata associated with a portion of the broadcasted media content with which the user has interacted.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the collaborator information includes a role of the user that has interacted with the broadcasted media content and wherein the method further comprises determining revenue share information based at least in part on the interaction with the broadcasted media content and the role of the user.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the collaborator information includes the editing tool used by the user to interact with the broadcasted media content and wherein the method further comprises:

determining the role of the user based on the editing tool; and

determining the revenue sharing information based at least in part on the editing tool used by the user to interact with the broadcasted media content.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying the user that has interacted with the broadcasted media content, wherein the interaction includes using a respective media device to provide user-generated media content;

determining a channel associated with the identified user; and

associating a link to the channel with the user-generated media content within the broadcasted media content.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting a message to the user verifying that the user interacted with the broadcasted media content, wherein the message includes the determined revenue sharing information and wherein the message is transmitted in response to determining that the user has provided user authentication information on a video providing service, the user is viewing the broadcasted media content on the video providing service, the user interacted with the broadcasted media content, and the user did not upload the broadcasted media content to the video providing service.

11. A system for determining collaborators associated with media content, the method comprising:

a hardware processor that is configured to:

receive a request from a content creator to initiate a session that broadcasts media content using a media device, wherein the request invites a plurality of users to participate in the session, and wherein the broadcasted media content is captured during the session using at least a media device of the content creator and a media device of at least one of the plurality of users;

determine that a user of the plurality of users has modified at least a portion of the broadcasted media content using an editing tool, wherein the user has been permitted to modify the broadcasted media content in response to determining that the user is one of the plurality of users invited in the received request and wherein user authentication information corresponding to the user has been received from the editing tool;

determine collaborator information associated with the modified portion of the broadcasted media content for the user based on the user authentication information received from the editing tool, wherein the collaborator information includes user information corresponding to the user authentication information and role information corresponding to a type of modification made using the editing tool;

in response to detecting that the broadcast media content is being uploaded to a video providing service, automatically cause, without user interaction, the determined collaborator information to be presented to the content creator in a recommendation interface for selecting one or more collaborators from the collaborator information to associate with the broadcasted media content prior to the broadcasted media content being shared on the video providing service; and

annotate the broadcast media content with collaborator metadata that includes the selected one or more collaborators from the recommendation interface, wherein the collaborator metadata is presented during playback of the broadcasted media content on the video providing service.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the user of the plurality of users interacts with the broadcasted media content using their respective media device.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the user of the plurality of users interacts with the broadcasted media content by inserting a clip of media content into the broadcasted media content.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to automatically cause, without user interaction, contributor metadata associated with the broadcasted media content to include the collaborator information.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to receive an indication from the content creator to associate the collaborator information with the broadcasted media content.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the hardware processor is further configured to insert the collaborator information into collaborator metadata associated with a portion of the broadcasted media content with which the user has interacted.
