The world's weirdest E-diot. Or the Lapis Lunatic. It depends on what day of the week you ask me. :P

Rest in Paradise, MOnty Oum

Posted by DigitalBluez - February 2nd, 2015


As you may or may not know, Monty Oum, the lead animator of popular web series Red Vs. Blue and creator of CGI Anime RWBY, has passed away yesterday afternoon. He had suffered from an allergic reaction during a medical procedure which had left him in a coma. He was later pronounced dead...

 

I still can't shake off the feeling. His work behind Dead Fantasy up to RWBY was what inspired me to study animation. To hear that he passed away was indeed soul shattering, especially for those of the Rooster Teeth community and staff. I have never met the man in person, and I have never known what it was like to work alongside him... all I can say is is that his creativity and unbelievable determination is what all animators should aspire to. As tribute, the latest track I've released today called "Evermore" is in honor of his work.

 

Rest in Paradise, Monty Oum. You have lit the torches of all the creative minds of the RT community and RWBY fanbase. Though you are no more, your soul lives on in the work you have left behind, and in the lives you have touched. You will not be forgotten...
