Introducing RoXolid Productions - Channel Introduction Teaser Video 2020

The vision for RoXolid (pronounced Rock Solid) Productions is that this will be about all things tech and more that I geek out about. Cutting the cord, saving money, retro video games, cameras, tablets, smartphones, I may even throw in a movie review here and there!

From how-tos, insights, micro-reviews, event coverage and more I’ll be talking it. Because posts will be made more on-the-fly I apologize in advance for any typos, incorrect supposition use or otherwise butchering the English language. I’ll do my best but I am sure things will slip through.

There will be a number of ways you can follow along as I go. Like the cool kids, we're on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, even Discord! You can also email me too, you know if you're into that sort of thing and all.

About Gary Katzer of RoXolid Productions:
Originally from Southeast Wisconsin, Gary has been involved in the world of video games from a very young age. Like many who came of age in the early 1980s, his family had a Pong machine and an Atari 2600. His love for gaming bloomed in the mid-'80s with the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), and he never looked back. While he was a Nintendo kid at heart, he definitely appreciated the Sega Genesis and the Atari Jaguar during their heyday.

In the early 2000s, Gary's other passion, the RC Car Hobby, became a prime focus for him. He competed in the Tamiya Championship Series from 1997 - 2008, nearly capturing the National Championship in 2001. From here, he took his love of the hobby and began writing for the leading RC Magazine at the time, Radio Control Car Action Magazine. In 2003, he and several others departed to start up RC Driver Magazine as the Lead Contributing Author for the publication. His many reviews, columns, and coverage of events over the course of many years.

In 2005, Gary stepped back from RC Driver Magazine and took a position as the first in-house editorialist for Horizon Hobby. Taking what he had established with RCCA and RCD, Gary crafted blogs, how-tos, product reviews, and previews, along with bringing event coverage to the Horizon Hobby Website. In November 2007 Gary launched the company's first social media presence with the first upload to the Horizon Hobby YouTube channel.

In 2017, Gary decided to launch his own YouTube channel, but to avoid any conflicts with Horizon Hobby he returned to his former passion of Video Games, and RoXolid Productions was born. Since the launch, he has attended a number of conventions and events including the Missouri Game Convention, Midwest Gaming Classic, Southeast Game Exchange, and the Portland Retro Gaming Expo. He has also made many friends along the way in the retro gaming community, many of whom have helped get RoXolid Productions to where it is today.

We are excited to share our love and passion for all things nerdy with you. Whether we're talking about modding systems, what our favorite game in a genre is, hanging out at conventions, or even discussing Sci-Fi Movies and TV shows, we want to welcome all to be a part of our community.
