Monty Oum

"I need to be fast. Fast is something important."

Monty Oum is creator, director, writer, and animator of RWBY. He currently works for Rooster Teeth Productions where he animates a popular machinima series Red vs. Blue.

Monty is a very time efficient person. He doesn't waste time doing anything. To save time he has even ripped out certain keyboard keys that don't contribute to his work.

The beginning of RWBY...
The idea for a RWBY show was in Monty's head since season 9 of Red vs Blue until one night at IHOP with Shane, Monty decided he was going to start the world right there. He decided to start on his world because "geography determines your culture and culture determines your people" (Monty's Journal 11/7/12) So his world was created with a napkin and some ketchup.
