Gayeton Exits Millions Of Us

-Millions of Us CCO Douglas Gayeton announced he's leaving the company. Gayeton says he wants to focus full-time on promoting and supporting "Molotov Alva and His Search for the Creator: A Second Life Odyssey," his documentary film set to premiere at SXSW in March.

Gayeton says "Molotov Alva" was the first machinima ever to be screened at Cannes. HBO acquired the film in late 2007, and will air the piece later this spring. The film was acquired by HBO in late 2007 and will be appearing at several film festivals in 2008, beginning with SXSW in Austin in mid-March, and has attracted mounting attention as HBO prepares to air the piece late this spring.

Millions of Us CEO Reuben Steiger commented on Gayeton's departure, "Douglas has helped us significantly broaden our in-house production capabilities as we help drive the convergence between virtual worlds and the entertainment industry; his contribution has left us well-positioned to take advantage of several promising opportunities. We wish him the best and will be closely following the success of 'Molotov Alva' and the similarly innovative work that will surely follow."
