A "WHAT IF" QUESTION

Posted in My Damn Channel with tags My Damn Channel, The Night Feed on 6/17/2008 2:00:15 PM by Rob Barnett

If you're a co-con, a regular to "The Night Feed," or a fan of Damn, we're sharing a brand new idea - before it's even half-baked - for your brains to help bake it better.

We're getting a ton of pitches for new channels, new web series every week.

We're doing an honest job getting through all of it & giving back answers a thousand times more quickly than yer typical old media response.



Problem is - we're saying NO - a lot more than we're saying YES.

Reason is - we started My Damn Channel with the idea that less could be more.

We never attempted to be the site with the most videos - we keep working to make sure that if we're putting care & coin behind something - we're doing it because we're giving you the better stuff - consistently.

WHAT IF we started giving more series a shot by creating a channel that featured the pilot episodes for potential new series on My Damn Channel.

We're not going after a "Funny or Die" approach - we're not opening up another "American Idol." But we would start a new way to give more creators a chance to reach millions.

We'd option your work for a chunk of months - after that - we'd either say YES to more & pony up -- or NO -- & you're free to move on.

More to say - but starting the earliest thinking here - for your comments in public, or private to: Rob@MyDamnChannel.com
