Hello friends. It's been a long road that we've traveled together since the inception of Rootclip.com. This whole idea started with two friends who wanted to cultivate a community of a new breed of filmmaker. It has been an amazing thing to see how much, not only the site, but the community has grown over time. For those of you who have submitted videos in the past, you should be proud of the work that you've done and how much you've improved your filmmaking skills since you first heard about Rootclip.
Despite all of these wonderful things, I'm tipping my hat to Rootclip and saying adieu (to you, and you, and you). I knew from the beginning that devoting time to Rootclip was going to be difficult as everything I did for the site was on my own personal time and outside of my regular job. I have invested a lot into this site, but have finally accepted the fact that I am not able to devote the time and effort that I really want to put into it. So, rather than being only half-invested with my time and emotions, constantly wishing I had more time to do the things I want to do for the site, I've decided to step down and leave all of the direction in Kevin's capable hands.
Along with the help of Nick, our developers Shawn and Luc, and YOU, I know that Kevin will help this site to do great things and I eagerly anticipate all that is to come. Kevin's got some exciting plans waiting in the wings, so stay tuned and maybe send him an email to see how you can get more involved.
I'm proud to have been a part of this adventure and will take many great memories with me; the trip to the Traverse City Film Festival to screen one of our completed films and talk with Michael Moore, laughing with you at all of the inside jokes (i.e. no shoes, Jim, etc.) and watching SO many of your fantastic video submissions that truly struck a chord within me. You guys have so much talent. Don't give up on your filmmaking.
And don't think I'm leaving completely. It's just the day to day operations that I will no longer be involved in. I'll still be hanging around the site, voting on your videos and talking smack in the comments and forums. Hey, maybe I'll even get invited back to be a guest judge?!
Thanks again for all of the support you guys have shown Kevin and I to make our dream for this site come true. If you want to stay in touch, feel free to follow me on Twitter. See you around the interwebs my friends. Peace!

good-bye, looch. happy trails and stuff.
;_; Goodbye Eric. You will be greatly missed....
Much love, dude. On your way out don't forget to reveal that it was all a scam. That Hungrymother was you and Kevin, and voting was rigged from the beginning. lol, jk.
I've really enjoyed the site, and I'm glad I got to hang out with you, dude. What was the name of that omelet place where we ran into Michael Moore's wife? That place was awesome.
Blessings in your future endeavors.
Thanks guys! I really have had the best time working on this site and helping to build the community. Now that I'm not working behind the scenes, you may see a submission from me in the future. Who knows?!
@killerrobotninja that place was actually called The Omelette Shoppe & Bakery.
Thanks for your work, Erik! You know where to find us! ;)
A sad day indeed - I'll miss your pretty green comments. :)
It's been a good one bro, thanks for making it happen!
All of your hard work on rootclip is greatly appreciated... and you were awesome to work with on each of the "roots". I do hope you end up creating a submission.
I certainly do too!
While we're on the note... thanks to everybody who's kept working to improve the site! You shouldn't have to leave to get a little recognition for your efforts! ;)
Everyone is turning green? I want to be green too!
(insert super-lame joke containing the words "green" and "envy")
