Jason Steele
Jason Steele is the founder and Co-contributor to the website FilmCow. He has created a total of 48 videos, mostly Flash animations but some live-action.
Jason Steele is the writer and animator of the Charlie the Unicorn series and Llamas with Hats series, two collections of Flash movies. Though he has made several lulzy films since then, Charlie is what he is most known for. In an episode of Chaos Pony, he revealed that a Charlie 4 and 5, and a Llamas 5 are under production.
Relationship with Knox
Jason and fellow indie filmmaker Knox (real name Robert Benfer)
have an ongoing relationship that started when the two met on Newgrounds, back when Knox was working solely on his claymations. Jason Steele voiced the antagonist, King Womp, in Knox’s first full-length movie, “Klay World: Off the Table!” Knox then voiced Aurek in Jason’s short film “The Cloak". Jason had several parts lined up in films Knox talked about making (and got quite far into making, in the cases of “Joe Cam” and his Chinese Democracy tribute “Villain”) but eventually gave up on. Knox has since been featured in none of Jason’s other films, possibly because of this.
KnoxKast Radio
In 2006, Jason and Robert started a podcast together, “Knoxkast Radio“. The first episode consisted of them trying to read Hamlet and failing miserably before eventually getting bored and abandoning it. This act would set the pace for Robert's career, but simultaneously introduce Robert’s fans to the then-unknown Jason.
Robert and Jason have also had many guest on the show. The long list includes:
Matt Books: The most prolific of the guests, Matt was featured in roughly a third of the episodes. Everyone (especially Matt) thinks he’s hilarious, but he couldn’t be farther from it.
Sammie Penrod: Knox’s best friend who has been featured in some of his films, mostly live-action.
Patrick Snyder, aka Evil Knox: Southern friend of Matt and Jason. Jason used Patrick to troll KKR listeners by pretending Patrick was Robert through an entire episode.
Gian Lanzefame: "I'm not from Mexico, I'm from Venezuela!" Robert and Jason's Spanish friend. Was trolled to ultimate lulz by Matt and Patrick in Episode 20 until he left.
Meagan: Knox’s girlfriend.
Knoxkast Ends
In December 2009, Knox and Jason successfully trolled their fans by releasing Episode 75, the final episode of Knoxkast Radio over a year after they said they would. Many lulz were had.
DVD
In 2009, Jason Released a DVD that compiled several FilmCow shorts on one disc for the price of $10. This isn't a bad price when
you consider that Knox's DVDs are priced at closer to $20.
The Present
Jason continues to make short films, the most recent being Zulway, God of Mercy. Jason, Robert, and Chris Alex also do a weekly podcast called Chaos Pony.
