THE HISTORY OF CC WORKS
CC Works 1.0
CC Works started off as an interview show, in a basement in Ridgway, PA, on December 25, 2006. The only editing skills was to stop rewind and start over, it was simpler time for CC Works. On January 26, 2007 CC Works started to go into the video spoofing productions, the way the videos worked was that a DVD player played the movie wile ran through a VCR player, without the audio plugged in to the VCR player, the video was unhooked and the audio was plugged in so that the character in the film looked like I was saying what we were saying.
On Augusts 28, 2007 CC Works moved to Warren, PA, a new era for CC Works, instead of using a karaoke machine, we used a 1992 VHS tape camcorder. This lit CC Works get better angles and the freedom staying in one place.
On January 26, 2008, two years after CC Works started even bigger changes happened CC Works started editing videos for the first time on the computer. There were several videos made but never released, like Warren PA news with Reid Manhood and Jacob Rod ski, and the Life of Mario, played and narrated by Christian Olson. CC Works was growing fast but on June 7, 2008 CC Works moved to Sevierville, TN were the first video was put on YouTube, on January 17,2009 the first movie was produced, it was only playable on computers only.

On, January 11, 2011, CC Works ended all of 28-bit picture cartoons witch King Cross computer, Field Trip to Kodak, The 12 pains of Christmas, A James Harvey Story and James Life Story,because “CC Work animation” this allows for more interaction between charters, better graphics and of the first time when charters talk their mouths will move. On January 21, 2011 Scotty Cashon left CC Works starting this own movie production “South Eastern Rails Productions”( Which is now Southern Rails Productions) mainly targeted on steam trains. In March Gabe Blackburn came involved in CC Works. Gabe took over Scotty`s job in about two months becoming CC Works vice president. “Gabe Blackburn is more than a friend of mine, he is like a brother I have never had” said Christopher. Gabe ideas pushed CC Works farther and has appeared on “Teenbuster” and “Christopher and Gabe do New Mexico”. “the most fun I have ever had with Gabe was when we went to New Mexico and got help with a movie Gabe Aunt Julie and Uncle Tom worked on” said Christopher. But then when the 2011 school year started Kyle had moved back to New York “it is sad to see someone leave CC Works” Said Christopher. So far that hole is still there. One of the major thing Gabe and Christopher have worked on was Draco was design for the cartoon animation part of CC Works. D.R.A.C.O( which means Design Random Art Cartoon Overload)
