Having achieved success thanks to its network of popular social media stars, Maker Studios is now expanding into film, and its first feature-length offering is less than a month away from its arrival. Internet Famous, which stars Shane Dawson as one of five nominees at a fictitious "Web Star of the Year" ceremony, will be available June 21st on iTunes.
