Disney will be able to reach that audience on new platforms much less familiar to the studio (primarily mobile) and drive demand that, in turn, accelerates and expands monetization of those “traditional” assets. Disney will leverage Maker Studios’ massive Gen Y and Z numbers (nearly 400 million subscribers and 5.5 billion monthly views) to promote its existing products (movies, television shows, theme parks, games, merchandise) directly to Maker’s coveted youth demographic. They bank on the fact that their much deeper resources can unlock and drive value in ways that standalone MCNs never could. It’s all about strategic value in the eyes of the beholder - and scarcity.ĭisney, Relativity, and other potential MCN buyers operate in a completely different way and on broader platforms to monetize than do those individual MCNs. But that didn’t stop Disney, and that isn’t stopping big media and others from jumping headfirst into the MCN game in our increasingly short-form YouTube video world. Neither of the two billion dollar babies - Maker Studios and Fullscreen - is believed to be profitable. It certainly isn’t the standalone financials - at least not yet. Now another one of the remaining large-audience MCNs, Fullscreen, is widely reported to have retained Allen & Company to evaluate multiple bids, the most public of which is Relativity Media’s rumored near-$1 billion overture.īut, what justifies the $500 million to $1 billion price tag for some MCNs? The Chernin Group offered up leading anime-focused MCN Crunchyroll as a tasty part of that deal. Even AT&T has entered the fray, investing in a new $500 million venture with The Chernin Group to develop MCN-like “bite-sized” premium video content. DreamWorks - via its AwesomenessTV division (which itself is an MCN that was swallowed up for a price potentially north of $100 million one year earlier) - recently picked up much smaller MCN Big Frame for $15 million. invested $18 million in Machinima, a gamer-focused MCN that is amongst the largest.
