The Ellation team is growing!
07–28–2016
Last month we announced VRV, our video platform featuring channels hand-picked for the fandom, and now that the news is out, the Ellation team has been hard at work making our product the best it can be before it’s in your hands. This also means our team is growing in order to tackle this challenge!
At Ellation, we are prepared to change how fans interact with their favorite content brands with VRV because of the talented, innovative people we have on our team like Mike Aragon, the industry veteran spearheading this new endeavor. Mike joined the Ellation team last December from Playstation Network where he was responsible for global video, music and original content, and also launched these types of services across 30 countries. We knew that Mike was the guy to build VRV to its full potential, and he’s helped us to set the vision for what the platform will become. Day-to-day, Mike works to drive the global business strategies for our content partners — ones like Rooster Teeth, Nerdist Alpha, NBC’s SeeSo and plenty more to come. He’s also responsible for Ellation’s platform functions spanning across ad sales and operations. In layman’s terms, Mike is the one responsible for bringing all these great channels to VRV.
We’re also continuing to improve on our flagship properties like Crunchyroll, a proven success that was the model and inspiration behind VRV. Crunchyroll recently hired industry veteran Colin Decker as its Chief Operating Officer — the man at the helm driving revenue, strategy, brand expansion and business operations for Crunchyroll. Colin joins the team from Discovery Digital Networks where he oversaw huge growth in social video audiences through original programming. We’re confident there’s no one better to further Crunchyroll’s growth so that all anime fans have access to both their favorite shows and Crunchyroll’s active community, no matter the time, place or location.
The team is excited to continue this momentum as we gear up to launch VRV later this year. We are passionate about building a team of talented experts who share the goal of creating amazing experiences for fans. If that sounds like you, come join us.
