Hi all!I'm due a "thank everyone by name video" but that's starting to get a bit daunting, SO INSTEAD! Ask me some questions and I'll read out the name of everyone who asks a question I answer!I'll probably use the pngtuber again for this so this can be as long a video as there are questions so hit me up! (and maybe include the pronunciation of your name if you think I'll get it wrong!)Thanks all!

You're one of the most amazing animators I've ever seen when it comes to microexpressions. Did you study something specifically for that (examining them in other artists' work, etc.) or does it come naturally?

Paul O'Regan

I love seeing how much your skills have improved in the years you've been regularly putting out content. Are there any of your early videos you wish you could redo now?

Leo

if you could wake up tomorrow and discover a remake of any movie (animated or live action), animated in your style, what movie would you like it to be? it would be as though you'd made it yourself, exactly as you animate, but with none of your own time/effort/frustration involved

Wais Hossain

I absolutely adore your unique art style and it's heckin cute. I'd love to know how you decided on making anyone's glasses those huge honkin things? I wear glasses myself and love that artistic decision haha (name pronunciation: "woss")

Erinn Nelson

How much to animate an entire intrepid heroes season of D20? £30? £40? £42?

Chad Heiser

I think you are just great! Is there one piece of media or one clip of something that you'd love to animate, but just can't figure out all the details on how it would look or can't get the okay to do so? Basically what's your "white whale"?

Inthewoodsomewhere

I absolutely love all the background details in your animations (my particular favourite is the McElroy/Drawfee one where Jacob is so, so concerned in the background!) Just wondering how you go about scripting and coming up with all the little moments that aren't the dialogue your using?

Ovadya

I love your original animations, such as the “15 ways…” videos. If you had the budget and animation help, what would be your ultimate animation project?

KC Maw

What was your first job?

Tawny Lacuna

Would you ever consider making a video about how you create your animations? I admit, I'm curious. I know you do live twitch vids, but I don't have the time to watch them. I'm just thinking about a 10min kind of thing.

Amber S

£420.69 - the funniest amount

Aych

how did you come to your artstyle as we love it today? sorry if that's a broad question haha

Maia

how do you choose what dialogue to cut from an audio clip? does the animation idea usually influence that or vice versa?

MrAtoni

What's your favourite color?

BucklingSwashes

What sorts of things do you like to do in your free time that don't feed directly into your animation work? Any particular video games you like playing, outdoor activities you enjoy, or places you visit regularly? In total, how many Cheesy Steves have you eaten in your lifetime?

KFM (Keeping Friendship Magic)

Now that it's been a little bit of time since you started doing animation more full-time, how do you feel your craft and life has changed from it?

Emmu Lah

I feel extremely blessed that you happen to have basically the same interests in media that I do. What surprises & delights me the most is your love of Drawfee- they aren’t a SMALL channel, but seeing their clips next to huge names like Dropout and MBMBAM is so exciting! When did you first get into Drawfee and what was it about them that makes such perfect animation-bait?

Emmu Lah

(Btw it’s pronounced ee-moo la 😉)

Emmu Lah

Ooooohhh what a good question

Freakservo

Does your art-style have a name? It's so recognizable in its consistency that I could see if from the distance of a baseball stadium and still say 'Yeah, that's the 'DeepBlueInk' style!'' But sometimes artists give labels to designs that have become synonymous with them, and that round head/giant glasses/pastel colors thing is distinctly yours!

Andrew Toms

I'm a big fan, and have been watching your videos for a while! But I'm also drawing a complete blank on what question to ask, while simultaneously really wanting my name in a video. So, uh... How ya doin'? (My name is pronounced Cap-Tan Big-Hed :))

Jandro Loyal

What's the largest animal you could singlehandedly clingfilm to a lamppost? (Heard an interviewer ask that to comedian once, and it's been one of my fav questions ever since!) Thanks for all of your amazing content!! Sincerely, Jandro (pronounced "JON-droe")

NativeRunner

You're amazing and prolific! How do you keep up your level of production? Animation can be so tedious and some artists can struggle with motivation but you keep producing hysterical video after hysterical videos. What keeps you working so hard? Is there some kind of corporate overseer? (Name is pronounced NAY-tiv RUN-er)

qbNone

Well, you've dodged the one about Griffin's glasses so long, I don't really have hope for an answer... In lieu of that: Do you have any gig outside of YouTube/Patreon? If not, when did you start doing DBI stuff full time?

Outlinesnotghosts

If you had unlimited time (and energy) what else would you like to animate? Other podcasts, shows, more original stuff?

Bobby Kratos

How do you manage to stay so much more talented, funny, and charismatic than Drawfee Jacob?

LQwerty

Where do you see yourself in 10 minutes?

Senna Bekkers

How did you get started with animation

G. Smith

Oh damn, that's a tough one. Uuuhm... Did you know that the average vagina is around 10 cm deep? Have you ever been so much in thought you missed your bus stop? Would you agree that we as a society spend way too much time thinking about the amount of wood that could be chucked by woodchucks? Do you like Nutella, and if so, does it go with butter or without? Are those the kind of questions you're looking for?

Namara Ashina

what's the longest you've ever spent on an animation?

Annie VanderMeer

Has there been a show you WANTED to do videos of but for some reason didn't work out (too complex, lack of interest, didn't really come out well)? And what are some inspirations of yours, animation-wise and otherwise I suppose? (Also how does one catch your attention to do something new? Not because of my show. ...okay a LITTLE bit because of my show)

Annie VanderMeer

(Oh and I go by Murderblonde, if you please <3 )

Emily D

What's some content that you've been enjoying lately that you haven't done animations about?

Mrpokeylope

100 little jacobs or one big jacob? But really, what animation series influenced you the most if any?

UnidentifiedFlyingSkyler

Hi DBI! I love your animations, especially the drawfee ones and I was wondering, what drawfee episode first inspired you to animate for it, and why?

Maggie

One of my favorite things you do is reframe noises or sounds in clips to add another narrative to the animation (Julia's togedemaru mustache, Nathan's Bobby Hill breakdown). I'm just curious how you come up with those bits, if it's something you put a lot of thought into or if that sort of lateral thinking comes pretty naturally to you?

IdentityCrisis

Dumb question I'm just stupid and wanna know: do you know John Finnemore Souvenir Programme? Are radio sketch programs a normal and common form of entertainment in England? Is radio comedy, like, it's own genre? Do people actually tune in? What's the deal with British radio??? Actual question for public consumption: do you follow any smaller content creators that don't have a very wide fanbase so you would have loved to animate those things if you could, and you want to give them a shoutout now that I've given you an excuse to do so in a video that you are pretty much certain a portion of your audience is going to listen to your opinion? If there's any weirdly specific underappreciated creator you want more people to check out, here is a stage for you to show it off if you'd like Cheers

Chris H

Are there body parts that are more challenging to animate?

Ruffled Wrenaissance

If you could choose one object/mineral (amethyst, panzer IV tank, jacob-horse, etc.) to become edible without any negative effects, what would you choose and why?

qbNone

I mean, that's a really REALLY low bar ;-)

TransCattyAcid

Most important question: When are we getting snakes or no snakes? Question DBI isn't a coward about answering: Assuming you're not under some kind of do-not-disclose agreement, has there been any discussion of more commissioned works from Dropout? I'd love to see more official animations for D20
