Hi Rooster Teeth! I’m Darlene. Me and my friend Jessine love you guys and put together a list of questions that we hope to have you answer.

How do you avoid burning out when making creative content? The idea of being creative as a career has always seemed appealing, but terrifying.

Jessine and I produce videos and skits, but are struggling with branding ourselves. This early, should the focus be getting into the habit of regular content, or should energy be put into establishing who we are first? How long did it take for the RT brand to come together? Did you dive headfirst into creating and then figure things out from there, or did you plan things out way before even generating content?

How did you guys get started? Who of you began the company and how did you come to know each other? Did Rooster Teeth begin as a single project, or as a series of projects?

Do you feel that the kinds of people involved with Rooster Teeth have had a major impact on the company’s success? What things do you feel have had a major impact on the success of the company?

How large of an impact do you feel that your fans have on your work? When you create content, how much thought do you put into your audience? Are you ever concerned about the audience reaction, or, for example, with RvB, do you simply create story according to what you feel is appropriate for the characters?

Do you believe that a location is crucial to a company’s success? If Rooster Teeth were located anywhere but Austin, do you think the company would be more or less successful than it already is?

How important is it for a creative company to work in specialized teams? That is to say, do you have separate staffs for writing than for animating or editing? Or does everyone in the company have a general knowledge for all creative media? Is it better to have specialized teams working on a project, or to have people who can do a little of everything?

What were your inspirations starting out? Did you ever want to work for an already-established company? What decisions led to the creation of an entirely new company?

Thanks very much.
