Soalric is a recipient of the Downfall Parody Awards (click for more info). | |
Soalric (pronounced Soul-Rick) Holt Parker has been a YouTube user since 2009. Initially, he uploaded videos created using the computer game Spore. However, it wasn't until December 2011 that he found his path in creating Downfall Parodies.
Humble Beginnings
Edit
Soalric's first video was called "Spore Attack". It was a story about an evil alien race that ultimately gets defeated by humanity. Obviously, such a mediocre story did not attract many views. He uploaded about fifteen videos using Spore and Windows Movie Maker. These videos generally lacked any story however, and ultimately came to an end.
Rebirth
Edit
In February of 2010, a mishap involving a chihuahua and a a power cord resulted in the destruction of Soalric's computer. It took months to be replaced, and the video making muse was lost. During these months, Soalric began to mature and see just how pathetic his original videos were. He stopped making videos for more than a year, and over this time period became increasingly engrossed within the Unterganging meme. On December 17, 2011, Soalric released his first Downfall parody, "Hitler Decides to Kill Fegelein". Based on the success of this and ensuing parodies, Soalric deleted all of his old Spore videos and devoted his channel to parodies.
Trailer Parodies
Edit
In January of 2012, Soalric uploaded his first trailer parody, "Saw: The Disney Chapter". This started a new chapter in his YouTube career. A total of five videos have been made based on a mix of Saw and Disney movies, and several other parodies have been made mixing various other films together. As of July 2012, roughly half of Soalric's videos were mashup parodies. However, as these were not nearly as popular as Downfall parodies, his production of trailer parodies slowed and now will only be made upon request.
