Hey there, Indiegogoers! And welcome to the fundraising campaign for our original web series: WASTED TALENT. Over the course of the last year we have produced, written, directed, and starred in the first webisode of this show. It was an amazing journey for us and only strengthened our resolve that this is what we want to do for the rest of our lives.

It was also a tremendous learning experience for the whole crew. We spent a lot of time on pre-production because we wanted the shoot to go smoothly without any complications and that's exactly what occurred. The footage went through a very long and grueling process in post-production due to the fact that we are a bit OCD and wanted everything to be perfect. We also needed to cover all of our loose ends to ensure that there are no future legality issues.

The bottom line is we just want to make people laugh for a living and we know that this show is the best first step in reaching that dream. Attaining one's dreams usually comes at a price and, unfortunately for us, that price is literally a monetary one. So the whole Wasted Talent team would greatly appreciate ANY amount you can spare to help us reach our goal. Look to the right of this page to see the "Perks" you could receive for making a generous donation, ranging from Wasted Talent merchandise to a producer credit in our next webisode. We really need $10,000 to finish this thing but we're asking for $2000. Please show your support!

Thank you so much for coming to this page and watching our show! We are so grateful to have you be a part of our journey. If you haven't watched the pilot on YouTube yet, please click on the link above and hopefully our product speaks for itself.

Thermal or Baseball LongSleeve

$75 USD

We thought about keeping these styles exclusively for ourselves since they're the ones everyone was eyeballin' at the premiere, but that would be a real dick move. So we're just gonna sell them for seventy five bucks a pop instead. Why? Cause we're stand up guys. That's why!

Wasted Talent Hoodie

$100 USD

This bad boy speaks for itself. Everyone loves a good quality hoodie. And like our favorite pre-historic amusement park owner, John Hammond's signature catch phrase, "We've spared no expense"....... No? Was that too long ago? Whatever. They're awesome. You want one. Give us a hundred dollars.

Autographed Shooting Script

$200 USD

This is one of those items that's going to be worth a shit load of money one day, but right now it's worth about ten cents for the paper we use to print it on and the ink we used to sign it. So, you also get two VIP tickets to our next premiere and your choice of one item from above. Except the hoodie. :-) Alright fine. The hoodie too.

A Cameo In the Show!

$500 USD

Like little David at the dentist, you may be asking yourself: "Is this real life?" The answer is "YES!" And you not only have two fingers, but you also get to have a speaking part on our show and experience the magic of being on a real-life Hollywood set! Actually it's just an apartment or a bar or something, but we yell "ACTION" and "CUT" and all that shit. Plus you get everything listed above.

Producer Credit

$1,000 USD

You will be credited as a producer for this episode and will be listed as such on IMDB. We have nothing funny to add because this is the real deal. From here on out you are a legitimate investor and when it takes off you will have gotten in at the ground level. It'll be like buying a hundred shares in 1940 of those little burger shacks with the golden arches that have been popping up all over the country. That's right. Bigger than Micky D's bitches. Like we said, we have nothing funny to say.
