Machinima Not Paying (Bankruptcy?)

Monday is a holiday but that doesn't have anything to do with them not being paid regularly on the 15th, Friday.

There payouts are not the best so I don't see why they would be going in the red. (I know a person who only gets a 2 dollar CPM).

They lost 13 million dollars with Machinima Prime this year. They have lost equally bad amounts on some of their larger channels with higher CPMs also.

DAMN 13 million dollars! That's got to be a hit to any network.

Yeah. You gotta wonder what that money was spent on. How could it cost so much? They can't be paying actors and editors that much, and the cameras and equipment isn't all that expensive. You can buy professional studio cameras under 10k.

They got more than that... the series got ~25M views out of an estimated ~300M views and made a loss of about 7M and also another one of their series which involved flying in youtubers such as xjawz and thesyndicateproject cost about 6M and made like 3M....

Most of it was on their high-production series, which they way over-estimated potential viewers for.

I thought Microsoft paid for them to make that Halo series. Those guys had a good thing going and they blew it on some crappy Youtube series'
