OUT IN CALIFORNIA

Posted with tags My Damn Channel, You Suck at Photoshop, Wainy Days on 7/1/2008 7:23:44 AM by Rob Barnett



Like millions of other humans, the pull of the west effect is mighty. The feeling starts in the chest. The head starts to spin. Ideas begin to bake. Aspiration. Inspiration. Resuscitation.

Half of our tiny staff is here in LA. Most of our artists are here right now.

My Damn Channel will be ONE this July 31.

We're about to close the first phase of DAMN and open up our second year stronger, smarter, better.

We never wanted to call the launch our 'beta.' That always sounds like an excuse when you see sites debut with an apology that they might suck less soon.

Our first year may end with over 30 million views. We've made over 250 original videos. We created 9 original video channels. 22 original series. Over 100 artists from music and comedy, from film and television.

Everyone is free from the typical red tape and molasses that grinds creative work down from lofty goals to the evil valley of compromise.

You get original videos the way the artists intended for you to see their work.

Our site's navigation organizes everything nto separate channel pages by artist. We're not thinking you have the time to search through thousands of little video boxes to find something good.

When we're in 'season' - our artists WORK every week. Regular episodes roll out like in the ole days o' teleeevision.

The ALL NEW version of YOU SUCK AT PHOTOSHOP is being seen once every 2 seconds on da verld vide web. If you missed yesterday's premiere of the brand new WAINY DAYS, then stop reading this drivel and hit this.

There's less than 10 of us on payroll here. We're putting everything we can into making more of all this for you. Everytime you get one more person here to see My Damn Channel - the numbers build to a point where we continue to make enough coin to do MORE.

We've just signed a new major syndication deal to put our videos out to millions more.

We've just signed one of my favorite talents of all-time to create a brand new summer series. We'll put the news out soon after the holiday.

THANK YOU for putting your eyes here and helping build a better way to get you good shit. Keep us honest. Get in our face if we stray.

"Climb in - it's a town full a losers and we're pulling outta here to win."
