Before I write anything, I want to say “THANK YOU” to Einzelgänger!

From December 2020 until March 2025 I have been the 2D Animator on the Einzelgänger’s YouTube Channel.

What is Einzelgänger? Most people, including myself, know Einzelgänger as a philosophy channel on YouTube. I reached out in late 2020, offering my services as a 2D Animator, and they accepted my offer. The idea was to enhance the content, and by that time the channel had around 700K subscribers. Right now, as I am writing this, the channel has grown to 2.34M subscribers. I’m grateful I had the chance to be a part of a project like this. I believe his content did bring some value to the people who were constantly watching every single video.

My main work involved creating short, simplistic 2d explainer animations weekly. I was provided with a script for the upcoming video, based on which my process was to create a storyboard for each scene, getting approved and creating the animation. I did help with some graphic design work, marketing materials for the channel, and the merchandise as well.

As every good thing must come to an end. Unfortunately, Einzelgänger decided to stop making videos. I appreciate the creative freedom I was given during my time working. I hope we can see more from him in the future, probably in a different area.
