About this project
Hello. My name is Kevin Maher. I'm a filmmaker.
Recently I was invited to appear at New York Comic Con, on a panel about "Geek Humor." So I made this short video about the ultimate geek comic: ANDREW 12 SIDED DICE CLAY.
There's more to his story than you see in this trailer. There are laugh-out-loud stand-up sets, Andrew's tortured decisions about how to make it in New York while staying true to his geek heart. And there's lots of jokes you won't hear on T.V.
To produce these videos, we need your help.
If you like what you see, we'll make more.
Seriously, no corporate sponsor will back this series. No company wants to see their new product being integrated by a greasy comic telling sex jokes about Star Wars characters.
By pledging money to these videos you will get to see them get made. So will thousands of other people.
