@RoosterTeeth
Rooster Teeth is one of the most-followed animation artists on Youtube with 9+ million subscribers.
Are you monetising your animation through YouTube ad revenue?
Forget about it!
Ad revenue “just isn’t cutting it” for some Animators.
For example, Rooster Teeth is pulling some of its most popular shows from YouTube—including the longest-running web series in internet history, Red vs. Blue.
On the 5th of October 2023, showrunner Kerry Shawcross confirmed that fan favourites like Camp Camp and Red vs. Blue will now be available exclusively through Rooster Teeth’s website. The logic behind that change is simple:
Although Rooster Teeth’s primary YouTube channel claims 9 million subscribers, Shawcross says the corresponding revenue “just isn’t cutting it.”
In a Twitter X post, the showrunner explained that ads on Rooster Teeth’s website generate “five to ten times” more value compared to ads on YouTube.
Increased site traffic could also drive viewers to FIRST, Rooster Teeth’s paid subscription service.

@SpindleHorse
Vivziepop is one of the most-followed animators on Youtube with 10+ million subscribers.
Vivziepop’s subscribers are in for a wicked treat.
Vivienne likes to animate cartoons and songs. She is a graduate of SVA in NYC, majoring in traditional animation, and she animates films based on silly characters she keeps coming up with.
She has also taken to trying to fan-animate some songs now and then. Songs that give her inspiration or direct visuals! She adores musicals, villains and animals.
Vivienne is bringing one of her adult animation series, Hazbin Hotel, to Prime Video.
The first trailer hit YouTube on Wednesday and fans are already psyched for a series filled with R-rated shenanigans, animated gore, and—of course—a healthy amount of hellish behaviour.
If you’ve tuned into the online version of Hazbin Hotel (or Vivziepop’s other popular series, the Streamy Award-winning Helluva Boss), then you should also know to expect Broadway-level music and choreography.
