History[]

Pre-I.I. (2011)[]

The channel was formed on February 22, 2011, just two days after The Stupid Trailer was released on the DuncanEpic channel, which came out before the channel was formed. Auditions for Inanimate Insanity were released on the date the channel formed. The Coin Bros. was then produced as Adam’s school project with Brian, but was never publicly released until 2016 in the Adamationz channel. Therefore, Season 1 began production.

Creation of I.I. (2011-2014)[]

On April 1, 2011, Adam uploaded the first episode of Inanimate Insanity. Sometime after that, The Taco Show was then released as the spin-off to that show.

Adam’s second school project was Nickel’s Tips On Conserving Water. Before September 13, 2011, Nate Groth deleted the first 5½ episodes, along with the school project. The first 5½ episodes were eventually brought back a day on September 14, 2011, and Nate was fired from the crew as a result, leading to Balloon having reused lines throughout the season. From June to August 2012, Adam and Taylor went to a summer program where they traveled around the United States, but Adam has done lines for Nickel in Battle for Dream Island Again’s first three episodes before the program started.

Adam went back from the summer hiatus in late August 2012, so Season 1 could wrap up before 2013. The video "Nickel's Tips On Conserving Water" was re-uploaded to YouTube in late 2012.
