The Era of Freek ID Productions
Liam Houghton is best known as the founder of Freek ID Productions. In late May 2010, Liam, famous/infamous for his time spent on Jackass-style "Monkey Bladder" videos, joined up with Mythical Creature Studios to create a larger company which was sometimes referred to as "Creature Freek Studios". Liam was then named as Vice President of the new joined together studio, but relinquished himself of his power and parted ways with MCS in mid June 2010.

Controversy
After leaving Mythical Creature Studios in June, problems arose when Liam Houghton erased the work he had previously done for Mythical Creature Studios, which included, the original version of The Accident comedy sketch, the original version of The Microwave comedy sketch, and an unrelated video titled "A Day in the Life of Piggy". Executive Producer and CEO, Kevin Murphy commented on the matter saying, "It is sad to see that the hard work spent on the docu-comedy, "A Day in the Life of Piggy", will never be broadcasted to anyone outwith Mythical Creature Studios now, but on the other hand, we are working on an enhance re-make of both "The Microwave" and "The Accident" for One Ring Circus, and we expect to be back on track in no time, following the departure of our Vice President". On June 29, 2010, Scott Wilson was announced as the replacement for Liam Houghton as the new Vice President of Mythical Creature Studios.

Return to MCS
Liam Houghton and CEO Kevin Murphy announced Houghton's return to Mythical Creature Studios as a Creative Consultant and Guest Actor on July 23, 2010. Murphy commented saying, "what's happened in the past has been forgiven, we'll learn to grow from the mistakes, and Houghton has ensured that the mistake will not happen again, we look forward to working together on "One Ring Circus" work in the near-future." Many within the company feel that Liam was brought back due to the lack of staff in the weeks prior.
