Collaborative video recording

A method, comprising:

• generating, by a collaborative video system to a plurality of recording devices, a synchronization code for a collaborative video recording session managed by the collaborative video system to display;
• identifying a plurality of recording devices as participants to synchronize with subsequent synchronization signals for the collaborative video recording session according to respective communications received from the plurality of computing responses that individually opt-in the plurality of recording devices using information identifying the collaborative video recording session captured from the synchronization code;
• coordinating execution of the collaborative video recording session, comprising:
• synchronizing the plurality of recording devices to a reference time tracked by a reference clock;
• receiving a plurality of videos from the plurality of recording devices, wherein the plurality of videos comprise timestamps based on synchronization to the reference time;
• and
• generating a shared timeline for the plurality of videos, wherein the shared timeline synchronizes the timestamps between the plurality of videos.

One or more non-transitory, computer-readable storage media storing instructions that, when executed on or across one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• generate a synchronization code for a collaborative video recording session to display;
• identify a plurality of recording devices as participants to synchronize with subsequent synchronization signals for the collaborative video recording session according to respective communications received from the plurality of computing responses that individually opt-in the plurality of recording devices using information identifying the collaborative video recording session captured from the synchronization code;
• coordinate execution of the collaborative video recording session, comprising:
• synchronize the plurality of recording devices to a reference time tracked by a reference clock;
• and
• in response to receipt of a plurality of videos from the plurality of recording devices, generate a shared timeline for the plurality of videos, wherein the plurality of videos comprise timestamps based on synchronization to the reference time, and wherein the shared timeline synchronizes the timestamps between the plurality of videos.
