After graduating from California Institute of the Arts In 1991, Ralf Hat with the help of Thatstuff founded Deadpan Productions. Most of the animations they did were low budget animations, most notably used in commercials, music videos, etc.

Deadpan Animation and Deadpan Music arose out of the ground to become the first division of the company overall.

In 1993, Hat left his job at to work back on Deadpan Productions, and soon founded Kingson, a channel which was launched on January 2, 1993. Kingson was a main result in making Deadpan Productions a popular entertainment enterprise.

Ralf Hat started his very first animated television series, The Misadventures of Gecko, in 1994 and led to the development of other animated series including Instruments & Instruments (1996), The Sherry Show (1997), and Super Villains (1998), all premiering on Kingson. Deadpan Productions, was one of the few production companies to produce long running animation, and a wide variety of other media.
