Fresh off its acquisition of Blip, Maker Studios has raised $26 million in a new round of financing.
The Silicon Beach-housed company, which promotes, manages and sells ads for a stable of YouTube talent, previously raised $36 million in a series C round last December from the likes of Time Warner Ventures and others. This new cash infusion brings the company's total to $62 million, minus the $10 million or so that went to Blip (per Allthingsd).
It's been a big year for Maker, which handles 60,000 YouTubers such as PewDiePie and Nice Peter (he of Epic Rap Battles of History).
