Abstract

In the present disclosure, a collaborative workspace fosters content creation between users in a synchronous and/or asynchronous manner by enabling automatic generation and management of collaborative media objects that automatically combine content from a plurality of users into a single media object. This is extremely beneficial in technical scenarios where users are creating projects, assignments, presentations, etc., by removing the need for users to manually stitch together and combine content to create a final product. For example, the collaborative workspace is adapted for a video discussion application/service, where users create one or more video clips (e.g., video feeds, live video feeds) in response to a posted topic. In at least one instance, a collaborative workspace for a video discussion application/service may be integrated to display within another type of application/service. However, the present disclosure is extensible to work with any type of application/service and any content type.
