ALL ABOUT ME

At a very young age, I found a passion for art, which has carried me across many different types of expression throughout my lifetime. From drawings to painting, ceramics, paper mache, foam fabrication, clay sculpting, digital art, and everything in between. I spent my high school years playing multiple sports, taking honors classes, and developing my skills. My summers were usually filled working in my uncle’s cabinet shop learning how to build and install cabinetry.

After high school, I attended a local junior college, TVCC. I graduated from TVCC with an associate’s degree in Kinesiology. I then enrolled at Texas A&M University where I graduated in 2007 with a bachelor’s degree in Health Education. Soon after graduation, I started my career in the world of education. YouTube has become just another avenue for me to teach others about the joy of creating things and sharing creativity.

I have had a little bit of success on my YouTube channel and have grown my following to almost 50 thousand subscribers. As of January 2024, I have over 500 videos, 5.5 million views, and over 325,000 hours of watch time on my channel. I have made tons of friends over the past couple of years and even had a few sponsors. I’ve been a guest speaker at a couple of conventions, judged a few cosplay contests, and cosplayed a little myself. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for me in my journey of sharing creativity with others.

My name is Thomas Hanna. On YouTube people know me as Much Props Studios. My day job for the past 16 years has been as a junior high teacher in a small school in east Texas. I have taught 4 different subjects: Health, Physical Education, Art, and Technology Applications/BIM. I have also coached 5 different sports: football, basketball, track, cross country, and tennis. My night job for the past 7 years has been as a content creator, maker, cosplayer, video/photo editor, and small business owner.
