For April Fools day this year the game grumps team produced an hour long video of Ross animating in flash, which was a fantastic way to see how animation in flash works and in turn make me attempt to use flash again for the first time in a long time, but also had a conversation between Ross and Arin, the two animators who make up game grumps talk about how they both got into animation, which was just as a hobby that they practiced until they became professional, but they also talk a lot about how animation online has changed, such as how they used to use newgrounds but then moved to youtube when they found out they could monetise their videos and make a living off of it, and then how youtube became more strict with how money was earned on youtube, such as how it works on how many minutes viewed, and how they help other independent animators by making their animations be at least one minute long so that it can be used to earn money on youtube. It was nice to be informed and entertained by the people i watch on a regular basis for soley entertainment.
