History

While serving as the Director of Dennis Media Group (an online, broadcast and retail video division of the former publisher of Maxim magazine), Phoenix sought in 2005 to expand the purview of this video production division to service the broadcast needs of outside clients. When it was decided that the video department should focus more on online editorial content, Phoenix used an offer to create graphics packages for cable television network Bravo’s first original production, Battle of the Network Stars, as the foundation for an independent production company. Shortly following Phoenix's departure, Dennis Media Group was restructured to focus on creating video and multimedia content for the editorial branch of Dennis Digital.
