Arin 'Egoraptor' Hanson is the creator of the hugely popular online webseries the "Awesome Series" including "Metal Gear Awesome" and "Poke Awesome".
What started as a hobby on newgrounds.com quickly turned into a fruitful life-long career, widening his viewer base using youtube and creating his own website egoraptor.net.
Arin still remains a dedicated video gamer, his original take on animated game reviews (the 'Sequelitis' series) were welcomed with high acclaim by the youtube community. While his colloquial language and style make him seem unprofessional at first glance, the time and research he invests in really convey the passion he has on the subject at hand.
Whether it be a fan-based parody or his highly opinionated point of view, any animation Egoraptor creates will surely appeal to anyone who already has had their own experience. Someone fairly new to video games who watches him for the first time will be very likely to see it as an ad.
Egoraptor's animating style and innovative way of communicating with his audience has greatly influenced me and will continue to influence me as I further my animating career.
