In this Creators United interview, we spoke to another member of BloodRush Gaming, the one and only Cody "TiniestHook" Pienaar. Cody is quite the funny guy (funny like a clown? Sorry for that GoodFellas reference, couldn't help it). He aims to make quality content alongside the good folks at BloodRush Gaming, while also having big dreams for the squad and himself. Let's see what makes Cody who he is, including some of his favourite things and the most unique "who are your inspirations" answer ever.



What inspired you to be a content creator?
I got invited to Creators Ball last year, and I liked the fun aspect of it because of the personalities.

Who are your inspirations, and why?
My next paycheck.

What type of content do you create?
Game Streaming, anything that's a gaming trend. Nostalgia as well.

What would you do to further your field in the South African entertainment industry?
Stream multiple games and fields of gaming. The problem in South Africa is you need to have an unique personality. Your own originality.

What prompted you to participate in the Creators United?
I like to help out and spread the word and support the community. Basically make things easier in a tough world.

Have you ever worked with any charity events before?
Lots. I built foundations for charities, and ran a charity for orphans, mainly building for charities all over.

When you’re not a content creator/superhero, what do you do in your daily life?
Manager and project planner/floor manager for a water factory.

What are the greatest difficulties you’ve faced being a content creator?
Trying to break out in the industry and the over-saturation of it, and trying to be original with content.

How did you feel when your content was appreciated for the first time?
I was excited because it's nice when someone appreciates everyone and yourself.

What is your ultimate goal as a content creator?
To get out there, to get BloodRush Gaming out there mostly.

Quick-Fire Questions

Favourite dinosaur?
T-Rex.

Why did you choose your specific handle?
Xbox gave it to me, and I was gonna change it, but I am not a tall guy so it's a name that stuck.

Favourite video game?
BioShock Infinite but there are so many.

How did you get here?
How did we get here? A car, probably.

What’s your favourite and least favourite food?
Favourite, pizza. Least is anything with avocado.

Favourite Pokemon?
Pikachu because of the movie.

Have you always been the funny kid?
Oh yes, I don't take much seriously so I have always tried to take the tension of the room.
