    Major Layoffs & Cancellations @ Revision3.com

    Revision3 Beta is still a go, but some mainstays got axed

    One of my favorite networks [web and otherwise] suffered great losses this weekend.

    For our long-running Photoshop show Pixel Perfect, it’s the end of a show that’s done over a hundred episodes, and delivered essentially a graduate level course in graphic design and technique. For PopSiren and Internet Superstar, it’s the end of 2 shows that had great promise, but never really found their audience.

    For two of the shows, we’re simply stopping our distribution agreement, but the shows will live on. You’ll still be able to watch Epic Fu, and Wine Library, both at their own sites, and through new and existing distribution partnerships. Epic Fu will be available on Revision3 through mid December, Wine Library ends its Revision3 run today. We remain huge fans of these two shows, even though they don’t fit our long-term plans at Revision3.


    ------------------

    One of my favorite shows Pixel Perfect along with: Pop Siren and Internet Superstar are gone. Pop Siren was growing on me and I kind of agree with the Internet Superstar choice.  IS never really found its audience and I was definitly not in their demo. Epic Fu and Wine Library TV were two shows that for some reason, reminded me of MTV when they first started in the late 80's and taking chances with really good talent interspliced with quality production. They will be missed by this viewer.

    If you've never heard of these shows...or stumbled upon this site to catch up on some really cool and informative shows click this link for the show archives.

    Hopefully this isn't foreshadowing for some sort of Podcast version of the 'dot com bust'
