Rooster Teeth is moving its content from YouTube to its own website, a move designed to bolster revenue that will allow them to create more content. <\/p>\n
In a video posted to X, showrunner Kerry Shawcross said that “YouTube revenue is just not cutting it for us anymore.” He noted that watching a video on the Rooster Teeth website with an ad delivers “five to ten times more value” to the company than a view on YouTube. “It just doesn’t make sense anymore for us to have our whole back catalog on YouTube.”<\/p>\n
Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Rooster Teeth celebrated its 20th anniversary this year as a production company. It is currently a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery. Its popular streaming shows include Red vs. Blue<\/em> (the third-longest running episodic web series of all-time, having premiered in 2003) and Camp Camp.<\/em> It also released the feature film Lazer Team<\/em>, and hosts the annual RTX convention. <\/p>\n Executives<\/span><\/p>\n Guest Column<\/span><\/p>\n To increase revenue, the company has created a subscription it’s calling FIRST. The model provides exclusive and earlier access to content and discounts to the company’s merchandise store. <\/p>\n As of September 2021, Rooster Teeth’s primary YouTube channel had 9.18 million subscribers and generated more than 6 billion video views. <\/p>\n Deadline has reached out to YouTube corporate for comment and will update with its response. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nRelated Stories<\/h3>\n
