The various embodiments described herein include methods and systems for generating interactive media items. In one aspect, a method is performed at a server system. The method includes providing access for playback of an interactive media item based on metadata generated using information associated with the interactive media item. The metadata includes information associating at least one parameter with the interactive media item. The interactive media item is generated based on one or more user inputs selecting one or more interactive effects for association with the interactive media item. The user input(s) cause the server system to make the one or more interactive effects available to a subsequent viewer during the playback of the interactive media item, such that the subsequent viewer is able to interact with video and/or audio of the interactive media item by controlling the at least one parameter during the playback.
