History

Omnivision was founded as My Damn Channel on July 31, 2007 by Rob Barnett and Warren Chao.[1] In 2011, My Damn Channel was named one of Time Magazine's "50 Websites that Make the Web Great".[2] In 2013, My Damn Channel entered into a partnership with digital media firm Blip in which the two companies would share exclusive first-run distribution for four original comedies.[1]

In 2014, the company was renamed to Omnivision Entertainment,[3] keeping My Damn Channel as a name for its YouTube and Dailymotion channels.

From November 2016 to March 2020, all social media accounts related to Omnivision and My Damn Channel remained dormant. No new content has been added to the My Damn Channel YouTube or Dailymotion channels since January 2015 and November 2016, respectively.
