Cas uploaded his first video, "Colorfight", on March 14, 2014. His first video (in chronological order) to get a million of views is "Who's This - A Game of Thrones Parody of What's This from The Nightmare Before Christmas". He would initially upload short parody cartoons based on media such as Splatoon, Black Panther, Game of Thrones, as well as popular YouTubers like Game Grumps, Idubbbz, and Maxmoefoe.
In 2018, he would post his first video in the Ultimate series based on Avatar: The Last Airbender. These would become very popular, eventually creating more videos based on animated films, but also shows and video games. The series briefly and parodically goes through scenes or moments from the media he's satirizing. Cas will occasionally put these animations into a compilation video.
In the near end of 2020, he makes his first recap cartoon in collaboration with another animator Junaid Chundrigar.
He usually posts pictures on his Twitter on a daily basis.
