LOS ANGELES — BitTorrent originals? Better believe it.

San Francisco-based BitTorrent, Inc. is moving a contingent into the Malibu office of Rapid Eye Studios, where the two companies will partner to identify, produce and distribute original video content for the BitTorrent Bundle platform in an exclusive partnership announced Wednesday.

BitTorrent Originals plans to create roughly two serialized shows per year that will debut across the Bundle platform for 30 to 60 days, after which they will become available through other platforms. Revenue will be mostly ad-based — with a pay option for premium content — and is split 90/10 in favor of the creator, the company said.

“In the last two years, we’ve become a trusted and valid channel for creators and publishers to reach a monthly global audience of 170 million fans directly," said BitTorrent CEO Eric Klinker. "Expanding into the world of original content is a move that makes us a serious player in the media business, and takes us another step closer toward our goal: creating a sustainable digital future for creators of all kinds.”

BitTorrent Originals will focus on shows for 14- to 25-year-olds, criteria based on a study of its user base. The first project, Children of the Machine, was announced last year; more titles will be announced in the coming months.

Users already stream or download hundreds of millions of bundles from creators like Sony Pictures Classics, Universal, Cinedigm and, perhaps most famously, Radiohead's Thom Yorke.

BitTorrent is hoping its massive user base — which the company claims is larger than Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu combined — will make it a competitor in the swiftly crowding originals space. Children of the Machine begins shooting this spring, and is set for release later this year.
