Alex Clark is a YouTuber who animates in the likes of JaidenAnimations and TheOdd1sOut. Like the two, he covers parts of his life in an animation format pleasing to YouTube's audience.

His channel started in 2009 as a news channel, quite different from today's format. In 2012 he released his "About a Girl" series which became a cult favorite. He went into animation soon after and has been animating to this day.

Alex's channel can be found here and his Twitter can also be found here.


It's Alex Clark provides examples of:

  • Art Evolution: His original animations in 2013 started off pretty crude. He later got the hang of it and redesigned his character to make it easier to animate. Soon after, he got Toon Boom and uses it to this day. After gaining a million subs in September 2017, he redesigned his character once more, adding in more detail to his clothes, limbs that aren't all-black stubs and most notably, hair.
  • Bilingual Bonus: While animating his 45-minute animation challenge (He drew TheOdd1sOut running like an anime character), he yelled a Japanese phrase which translates to "I am delicious".
  • Clingy Jealous Girl: Alex's girlfriend doesn't really like how he talks about his hot babysitter, at one point prompting her to go back in time to attempt to assassinate her.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Practically every sentence in his animations involve some for of sarcastic wit or self-deprecation.
  • Evil Sounds Deep: His evil sister speaks in a low, raspy growl.
  • Likes Older Women: Downplayed. One of Alex's longest and most famous stories involve a crush he had on his little sister's babysitter who was only two years older than him. (He was 13, she was 15)
  • Man on Fire: His hand caught on fire during one of his entertainment tours, while attempting to juggle some torches. Don't worry, he made it out fine, but his hand went through a 3rd-degree burn.
  • The One That Got Away: His hot babysitter.
  • The Scrooge: His dad is constantly looking for ways and excuses to save his money and make more.
  • Sibling Rivalry: With his evil sister.
  • Unreliable Narrator: His narrations can often make a complete 180, only for him to reveal that he was joking and get back to the story.
  • Wham Shot: The reveal of his new design at the end of his 1-million subscribers video.
