Ochre (www.theochre.com) is an NYC-based media startup. We are a new,
growing company building an online video network giving content makers the
ability to create interactive videos where viewers can make decisions on the
outcome of the story - seamlessly and in real-time. We partner with ad networks,
agencies and IT resellers to release this content.
Founded by Grammy-winning producer Devo Springsteen, Ochre is not just
about 0s and 1s. It’s about embracing technology to allow our partners tell stories
in meaningful ways never before possible. It’s about changing the video medium
from a 1-way presentation to a 2-way conversation. It’s about changing culture
and our expectations of content.
We are a seed-funded startup (including celebrity investors) currently closing a
round with top tier institutional investors.
