• 06 - How to go from $10,000 and Working in a Small Apartment to Selling Your Company for Over $100,000,000

  Skogmo began his media career working as a casting intern for big budget films such as Batman Begins and then worked for the creator of Judge Judy in the mailroom, where he sorted through audience-submitted VHS tapes (the “old-school” way of sourcing content). Now the premiere, fast channel enterprise, Jukin Media wasn’t always an empire. It began as a start-up in Skogmo’s apartment, where his entrepreneurial spirit led him to license and monetize video clips. However, Skogmo made his fortune in obtaining the IP for video clips and selling them to broadcast channels. Jukin Media developed into an international company with offices in London, Los Angeles, New York, and New Delhi, becoming the ultimate generated content curator when it comes to video channels. Thus establishing Skogmo as one of the most successful and innovative content curators in tech history. Jukin Media owns and programs fast channels such as People are Awesome, Fail Army, Pet Collective, and Weather Spy. Jukin also owns the licensing and rights to over 100,000 videos clips, including the viral sensations “Chewbacca Mom,” “Pizza Rat,” and “Tori Burns Her Hair.” Skogmo shares his experience in producing more than two hundred hours of TV programming for networks such as MTV, Discovery, Fox, and TruTV and divulges his predictions for how media and technology will either clash or converge for network channels. ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.

• 05 - How to Program to a Global Audience of 7B with Warner Media’s Christy Haubegger

  Christy Haubegger, the Executive Vice President, Communications, and Chief Enterprise Inclusion Officer of Warner Media, joins Richard to discuss the process of programming content for a global audience. One of the biggest challenges for a company like Warner Media is ensuring they are catering to an audience on the international scale, rather than solely American media. Christie’s goal is to ensure content reflects the interests and culture of their audience by bringing the level of rigor and and analytics to the idea of equity and inclusion. What she has found is that diverse casts in films have incremental audience opportunities. Christie is spearheading ways in which diversity and equity are reflected in movies, because movies shape our culture and how we view the world. As content streaming services diversify and evolve, the ways in which media networks measure success changes. Rather than basing performance off of metrics such as ratings, media companies use demographic such as specific regions and different age groups. They are also tasked with obtaining loyalty from their consumer base - something that is growing exponentially more difficult as streaming platforms emerge and transform. In this episode, Christy and Richard discuss: How Warner Media has moved from a wholesaler to a retailer with HBOMAX and upcoming CNN+ The wealth of IP that is part of Warner Media How Christy used and uses Data Science to prove that movies with a diverse cast do better How anyone can become a storyteller with just their phone What 3 movies caused Christy to move her entire life to LA to be in the film business And why Salma Hayek takes Christy's call and not Richard's ----------- This episode is presented by: Stubbs, Alderton & Markiles.
