Meeting with Adam Elend - Producer of Wallstrip

I'm very excited to be meeting with Adam Elend, one of the producers of Wallstrip tomorrow. Today, it was announced that CBS has acquired Wallstrip for 5 million bucks. Congrats to Wallstrip. As a part of BrightRED Pictures, Adam and his partner Jeff Marks have been writing, producing and directing these daily videos since January of 06. For those of you who don't know what Wallstrip is please check them out here.

I'm really looking forward to asking Adam about the possibility of major networks licensing shows from the web like his to put on Television set top box in the future, how licensing/content partnerships work at Wallstrip and what his plans are for the future now that they are a part of a big media conglomerate. Crossing from the web to TV will be an interesting experiment. I'd like to know if he thinks Wallstrip could have been licensed on a per show basis or in some other form to a TV channel like CNBC or Bloomberg or even a VH1 "Best Week Ever" type show. However I'm sure they are not complaining about being married to CBS now.
