Big Coat Productions has hired Dan Lee to the newly created position of digital content manager.

The former productions manager of content creation at Temple Street will be responsible for managing Big Coat’s digital content strategy, as well as the creation of long- and short-form reality/lifestyle content to appear on a new YouTube channel.

The new channel will include both exclusively digital content produced under Lee’s stewardship and spin-off content from Big Coat’s linear shows. A launch date has not yet been set  for the channel.

Starting Feb. 22, Lee will be based in Big Coat’s Toronto main office and report to the company’s co-executive producers Catherine Fogarty and Maria Armstrong. Big Coat also has offices in Vancouver and North Carolina. Prior to his work at Temple Street, Lee was a story editor at Toronto’s Zoomer Media, as well as a director at Toronto-based DCL Films.

Big Coat Productions’ credits include Love It or List It, which is currently in season six on W Network, and spin-offs Love It or List It Vacation Homes and Love It or List It Vancouver, which was recently renewed for a fourth season.
