Upgrading and evolving the WPTV form to upload videos

A bit of context, as a WordCamp organizer, we came across a lack of documentation (​https://make.wordpress.org/tv/handbook/aws/upload-s3/) about the process of uploading videos for WPTV which is not up to date anymore.

So to ease the process of uploading videos (for a WordCamp), the documentation will be updated, but most of it, I propose to evolve the form (​https://wordpress.tv/submit-video/) and connect it to WordCamp sites to automagically get the following fields:

The user could tweak the fields if necessary, remaining only to upload the file for the video.

The idea is to minimize errors and facilitate the form submission, especially when uploading 10-15 videos for a WordCamp.
