Hello, I decided to come forth and say I’ve sadly lost my MacBook and hard-drive back in 2023. I filed a police report but they were never found.
I had accidentally left them on a bus and was told there was nothing found. I think someone must have stolen it before the bus staff and police could find it in the exact place I had left it.
I only have a backup dating up to 2020. So after that year, about 3 years of personal work/data was lost forever.
This is also the 2nd time my hard-drive was stolen. I basically went through all the stages of grief. Not something I’d wish on anyone.
Everything I had saved on my personal drive that I spent countless hours searching on the internet was all gone (again). I simply lost the motivation and the pressure of pleasing all my subscribers became too much for me.
I disappeared from YT mainly due to this. Only occasionally posting random interests.
I’m very thankful for the community I briefly had for those few years, but I wish to move on. I’m no longer in the animation industry as well.
Who knows if my passion reignites in future, no promises. But until then, my videos will always be here to enjoy for years to come.
I believe people will make content better than mine. There are other YouTubers who will create the content you enjoyed on my channel.
Hey hey! I'm very happy to announce a cartoon I worked on is now airing on Pop UK! Kung Fu Sock!
This project was so challenging but I'm glad to have briefly participated in such a unique project with beautiful animation and storylines!
Someone uploaded the two episodes I was involved in on YouTube, it’s Ep 3 & 4! (Although I was only credited in the first)
Do check out this new cartoon and support the show! Full of adventure, humor and touching moments in an ongoing story arc. I've already watched all of it, so I can guarantee any cartoon lovers will enjoy this show!
I’m proud to announce that some animations I did for my company are finally released! You can watch them in the links below! I’m an aspiring artist. Wanna do my own animations in my free time, maybe Cartoon Network fan animations who knows hehe?
Hi everyone! Thought I'd give you an update on the CN City HD progress so far. I've provided a picture of my workspace on Premiere Pro. As you might know, I'm awaiting the Animation Supervisor to upload every Friday, so I cannot do anything until he uploads the HD bumpers on the official CN City Facebook page. If you haven't known, please like and comment on the page to ask for the missing bumpers as he is our only source: www.facebook.com/CartoonNetwo...
Some of the bumpers have been lost due to one of his hard drives sadly dying. But he's trying to reach out to his former team to ask if they have missing bumpers for shows like My Gym Partner's a Monkey, Class of 3000 and Squirrel Boy. Continue to send him support please! Don't lose hope that we can recover all of them one day!

Hi everyone, want to announce I will be taking a break from YouTube. Last night, I received the devastating news that my good friend committed suicide. I’m extremely traumatized by the loss. He was there for me when I almost took my own life 6 years ago, I hate how I wasn’t able to do the same now. I ask that everyone respect my privacy during this time. Also, please check up on the people you love. You never know if they’re depressed and might attempt to kill themselves. I cannot stress how Mental Health is so important.
RIP Paul, I’ll always remember your legacy and live a life for others like you told me. I love you bro. ❤️🪦
I've officially hit 1k subscribers! Thank you so much everyone I can't express it enough! As you know, I'm aiming to reconstruct and upload all Cartoon Network City bumpers! I hope we can work together to bring Cartoon Network City to High Definition! So I'll need your help!
For now, please like and support the official CN City Facebook page for more lost bumpers: www.facebook.com/CartoonNetworkCity It's managed by the actual Animation Supervisor who worked on the bumpers, so please ask him for any missing bumpers! He has a lot that he hasn't revealed to us. I can't do this alone! XD
PS. I'm also planning to upload personal animations and vlogs in the future. For now, stay safe from Covid!
