Empowering Locals At Scale
Creator platforms are not ideal for finding local relevant content. They're making money off users' backs while convincing them to remain loyal no matter what. People, not just platforms, deserve to reap the monetary benefits of having an active community. New platforms that balance profit and purpose by putting a premium on sharing power and resources are desperately needed.
By combining an all-in-one platform and a creator community, consumers can find local content, and creators can make more money publishing original content exclusively on That Video Mag than on other platforms. Our mission is to create a community of people who actively and consciously pursue that economic interest together to create a sustainable and secure economy for themselves that they might not be able to accomplish as individuals.
Who Are We?
Dexter Bayack

My career in digital media started in 2007 with $5,000 from my family. In 2007 I created my first video publication for automotive enthusiasts named TunerlifestyleTV. In 2010 I rebranded as UrbancityTV, which became That Video Mag in 2012. I have 15 years of experience in web development, videography, photography, digital marketing, and event production. My most significant accomplishment was starting my first business with $100 while on welfare. It generated 1,000x in annual revenue in three years. The New York Daily News featured my company on Monday, October 27, 2003.
