As any student of media knows, birthing new media can be a tremendously fun, engaging and rewarding endeavor, but it’s also rarely a straight shot to success.
15 years ago we were posting magazine articles to the web; fast forward to today and it has morphed into blogs, Twitter and Facebook.
You’ve got to try a lot of different things to figure out what works. And the metrics for success also shift as the medium evolves. What’s right in the beginning often isn’t the best long-term solution.
We’ve had a number of great successes here at Revision3, including Diggnation, Tekzilla and The Totally Rad Show. But not everything pans out. Just as in the past, when we ended shows that just weren’t building audiences or driving revenue, we had to make changes. As you may have heard, today we had to make some tough staffing decisions as we ended the run of a few of our shows.
For our long-running Photoshop show Pixel Perfect, it’s the end of a show that’s done over a hundred episodes, and delivered essentially a graduate level course in graphic design and technique. For PopSiren and Internet Superstar, it’s the end of 2 shows that had great promise, but never really found their audience.
For two of the shows, we’re simply stopping our distribution agreement, but the shows will live on. You’ll still be able to watch Epic Fu, and Wine Library, both at their own sites, and through new and existing distribution partnerships. Epic Fu will be available on Revision3 through mid December, Wine Library ends its Revision3 run today. We remain huge fans of these two shows, even though they don’t fit our long-term plans at Revision3.
All past episodes of these shows, as well as all other shows no longer in production, will still be available for download from Revision3.com in our show archives.
Even though we’re sad to see these shows end on Revision3, in today’s economic climate it’s essential for us to focus on what we do best, and where the best opportunity for success lie.
We’re continuing to develop and invest in new properties. We launched seven new shows last month, for instance, on Revision3 Beta, and we’ve got high hopes for an expanded lineup there – and seeing some of that first crop graduate to Revision3.
We’ll be talking more about 2008 and plans for 2009 over the coming weeks. Until then, join me in thanking these show teams for bringing their insight and entertainment to Revision3, and wishing them well in their new efforts.

took trouble to register so that I could say that Pixel Perfect was the only programing in your entire stable of horse …. worth watching. Now I have no reason to come back.
by by.
Why on earth did you cancel Pixel Perfect? I have recommended this show to everybody I know. Fairly big mistake of Rev3. A lot of people use photoshop and the user base of that software will only expand. Kids can’t afford to pay for decent tutorials and Bert Monroy provided top quality for free. I’m an adult, 27 years and capable of putting things in perspective. But since the show got cancelled, I’m feeling really down. Almost two months now and here I am, posting comments and writing mails to let you know my dissapointment.
You should have marketed the show better. I use photoshop for 12 years and the internet for 15 years. But it was only in June 2008 that I found Pixel Perfect. And I garantee that I’ve been searching for tutorials for ages.
Shame on you. I will never watch another episode of diggnation, tekzilla, diggreel or scamscool again. Shows of which i have become a huge fan, ironically because of Pixel Perfect.
I am sure that competition will arrive, and I will turn to them instead.
The truth is that people carry on and many will return nonetheless. Because you have good shows
Good riddens Rev3
Hey, good idea, watching the episodes from other sources. Rev3 will slowly fade out
You need to keep Sarah Lane. EPICFU was never a good fit, the others I never watched at all.. (TRS + System + Tekzilla + Sarah FTW, didn’t like Popsiren though…)
You demanded that its production be moved from PixelCorps to your own studio, you ruined the show with the weird zoom-ins and poor screen capture, and now you can’t afford to produce it anymore you can get more information from this.

They obviously didn’t cancel these old shows to piss off the viewers, it was because not enough people watched; therefore low revenue.
thank you. Beatifull Archile !
