Abstract: In some embodiments an apparatus includes a processor included within a compute device, operatively coupled to a memory, and is configured to execute an application module and a recording module. The application module is configured to receive, at a compute device, an indication of a user selection of a video request from a list of video requests. The video request is associated with a list of characteristics and is associated with a video request identifier. The application module is configured to, based on the video request identifier, define a video recording environment in accordance with the list of characteristics. The recording module is configured to record, during a time and using a camera integrated with the compute device, a video such in accordance with the list of characteristics. The application module is configured to associate the video with a relationship indicator indicative of the relationship between the video and the video request.
