It all started when Ross was in the university, studying film and television. There, he met Chris Trott, Nathan Ashman, and Adams. Soon, they became best friends and often discussed their passion: video games. Once, while discussing their future plans, they collectively thought of venturing into the world of gaming. That is how 'HAT Films' was born. Initially, it was named 'H.A.A.T Films,' a name that originated from the initials of their surnames. After graduation, Nathan and Adams quit ‘H.A.A.T Films’ to pursue their individual ventures. Soon, Alex Smith was roped in and the venture was renamed.Recommended Lists:Recommended Lists:

Ross' Association- The 'HAT Films' trio is now a name to reckon with, in the gaming arena. The team’s efforts to deliver high-quality entertainment are commendable. Entertainment comes naturally to this trio. They try not to follow the conventional path. For instance, in 2014, they arrived at the 'Yogscast' office dressed in rags. They were also drunk and were munching on caviar.Ross is the eldest of the three members. He usually stays away from the immature conversations between Smith and Trott. However, that does not make him less entertaining. He often cracks jokes with Smith and Trott. At times, he even engages in jamming sessions with them.Ross is the most skilled editor of the three.
