AT&T’s Otter Media Shutters Early Digital Video Outfit Machinima

MediaPost: One of the earliest digital video companies, Machinima, is ceasing operations and laying off most of its staff. Machinima first started producing videos for the web in 2000, using video games as a platform to create a new IP. It sold to Warner Bros. in 2016, and when AT&T acquired Time Warner last year, the company shifted to AT&T’s Otter Media unit.
