TierZoo is a Streamy award-winning channel that examines the natural world as if it was a video game, using language, graphics, and structure more commonly found in videos about Super Smash Bros., MMORPGs, or The Legend of Zelda. We spoke to creator Patrick Lacey about how the channel came to be, how he writes and researches his videos, and his approach.
