nextNYers – Gorilla Spot
by Allen Stern on March 13th, 2008
This week on nextNYers, Athan Stephanopoulos, CEO and founder of Gorilla Spot, discusses the appeal and success of the online public editing program. By teaming up with movie houses including Paramount Pictures, Gorilla Spot is able to provide users with premium content on an intuitive user-friendly editing platform.
They are currently angel funding but are looking at a Series A round. Some notes about Gorilla Spot:
- An online video editing application bringing premium entertainment content to the hands of creative users
- Generates revenue with a CPA model for every video created and a CPM model for every video consumed
- Recently did a campaign for Paramount Pictures and the movie Sweeney Todd
Allen’s note – this seems pretty similar to Kaltura, another NY-based company.
