KindredPhantom

I think you chose a good time to leave machinima/youtube, with the current direction they are heading in.

I mentioned that article earlier on. From what Ross has said on the forums it seems his issue is trying to get a response from Machinima. It may be jumping on the bandwagon, but perhaps a Kickstater would help. I don't know if he has enough people that would consider backing though.

This is an interesting article, quite relevant to the topic of machinima.com contracts. Perhaps you could consider joining a different group on youtube, if negotiations with Machinima.com fall through. Be careful with signing a new contract, would hate to see you sign your life away to them. If you are allowed then perhaps start to upload other content to youtube and try and get partnership/coverage that way. It won't pay the bills at first but could help you get further employment.
