Maker Studios Parts Ways With Chief Content Officer Erin McPherson

First major exec shuffle since Disney bought the network

Here's a major shake-up at one of the largest multichannel networks: Erin McPherson is departing as chief content officer of Maker Studios.

A Maker Studios spokeswoman told Adweek the departure was a "mutual agreement" between McPherson and the Disney-owned company and that Maker has no immediate plans to replace her. Video Ink, which first reported the news, is also reporting that Jeremy Welt, senior vp of marketing, is out as well. Maker would not comment on Welt's departure.
