Tubefilter News: Ask A Ninja Hires Brett Register

Personally, Ask A Ninja is very important to me, for it's the very first thing I watched on YouTube.  Long ago when I was about thirteen or so, I used to surf a kiddie forum site called GaiaOnline (which has grown considerably since then) and I stumbled across an Ask A Ninja video on someone's profile, which lead me to YouTube.  Thousands of video views later I'm an avid YouTube browser and Ask A Ninja fan.  I even bought Ask A Ninja's Ninja Handbook.

Well, one month before its fifth year anniversary Ask A Ninja is bringing in some fresh ideas with a man named Brett Register (The Crew, A Good Knight’s Quest) set to be their new producer-director for day-to-day content.
"Brett is one of the most prolific and consistent people working in the web video space.  This is like when your favorite musician brings in a new producer, or a comic book brings in a new artist. Same core, just slightly different execution." - Kent Nichols, co-creator of Ask A Ninja, in his blog post on Sept. 2nd, 2010.

A lot of the direct outcome of having a new mind on the team means more videos, which will be released on certain days corresponding to Ask A Ninja's own schedule.  A lot of these will be skits and sketches, or maybe small mini-shows, with most, if not all, featuring the Ninja himself.  Tubefilter spoke with Nichols in an interview in which he stated,
"The idea behind the sketch day is to be a total palate cleanser for all of us creatively, as well as, be an incubator for new internally generated shows and concepts."

All of this is good news for fans like myself, as it can only mean more Ask A Ninja videos to watch.  This also shows that their popularity is still increasing, as well as their budget.
