Correct type for channel on VOD marketplace?

Hi,

I’m looking for the right Schema.org type for my scenario but can’t quite
decide which is the right one.

I have a video on demand marketplace when a channel can sign up and offer
videos for rent. The marketplace is called Your Fight Site VOD. The
platform itself I’ve described as simply a WebSite. Videos are naturally a
VideoObject type, but I’m struggling to decide what type the *channel* offering
the videos for rent should be marked up as?

It seems the VideoObject has a provider property with the description:
“Another party (a seller) may offer those services or goods on behalf of
the provider”. That seems to explain my use case, where the channel is the
provider but my platform is the seller, but there’s no “seller” property on
the VideoObject (that I can see). So how do I describe that the video
belongs to a channel, but the seller is my platform?

Any guidance would be most appreciated!
