## History

### 2010-2017: Before TV Tomcat

LF2’s origins of his love for Outfit7 date as far back as 2010, and his PowerPoint and Google Slides usage as far back as 2014. His 1st grade "Summer Project" was an installment of PenguinOS (Penguin OS Server?) made in 2015 using PowerPoint which is based on many if not few of Computer Clan’s Windows Crap Edition videos.

#### PowerPoint video career

After finding out about the Create a Video feature introduced in PowerPoint 2010, LeapFan2014 (LF2) created his first PowerPoint video: FHE Logo Remake. After noticing a mistake with the fhe, he fixed it and called the fixed video FHE Logo Remake Enhanced. The legacy would continue until 2021 but still uses it for his own uses and his personal projects he came up with. Successes made with PowerPoint during 4th grade include his Talking Tom Error (2016), Talking Tom TV and Yoop Film (both 2017, based on BBC and Medusa film, respectively) and more. Yoop Film is the only 4th grade project to be redone entirely in 5th grade. In the said grade, LF2 began projects like 20th Century Chemist White and others.

### 2017: Birth of TV Tomcat

On September 15, 2017, while looking for inspiration on YouTube's TV app, LF2, who was using PowerPoint for motion graphics at the time, had a fresh start by clearing the guest profile's watch history after experiencing 2 parody logos part of the GBC Filmed Entertainment saga; the first one he thought "the weirdest thing he ever saw" in his head, both scared, curious and interested about (the nature of the first half of) the video at the same time. At Corbin Intermediate School, where he attended at the time, he was creating more PowerPoint presentations, one of them where he came up with Rede Tomcat in the style of Video Show logos, and uploaded them to his drive on Google Drive. After a series of Outfit7 comemrcial mockups based on the commercials of Chipotle at the time they were uploaded, Inspiration struck LF2 through a compilation of Rede Globo (now TV Globo) idents from the now-deceased Tudo TV (as LF2 remembered in 2016); leading to the creation of Rede Cleanup. Cleanup's 1976 logo consisted of a frowning Tomcat face from the "You got 0 coins" screen on My Talking Tom which was accessible before the "travel" feature was introduced in the game in 2016. Before the official birth of the Tomcat saga, a tutorial to make the logo was uploaded on around the same month in October 2017. By watching additional logo histories of parodies of Rede Globo including Rede Yalco and Igor C. Barros’ Salt Cover, LF2 had come up with the idea to bring Rede Tomcat to the public in the same year in 2017, marking the birth of the Rede Tomcat saga. The 1969 logo consisted of the Android notification for the Talking Tom Cat app, the 1976 and 1986 logos consisted of the Globo’s logo at the time with a mini Tom with a irritated face, from the Talking Tom and Friends Minis episode Part Time Job, taking place of the small sphere in the middle. The 1988 logos and onward consisted of Globo’s logo at the time but the small sphere in the middle is replaced with a neutral Tom face used for Talking Tom TV’s logo, taken from a LINE sticker as seen in Tom’s New Love, an episode of Talking Tom and Friends Minis. After uploading the complete idents, except a never-before-made ident featuring the 1965 logo, from 1969 to 2014, the saga became a success. STCFetishOfficial uploaded a logo history of this parody as well.
