The horror short “The Chair” - Premiered at Warner Brothers Studios 100th Anniversary Employee Film Festival

The Nerdist Showroom at Meltdown Comics was a place comics across Los Angeles called home. Fans came in from around the country to see shows at NerdMelt and shop at Meltdown Comics.

On March 30th, 2018, the place we called home came to a close. So many incredible people had a part in making this place magical since it first opened as NerdMelt on April 2, 2011. We found out 9 days before closing that we were in our last week of shows. Tim spent 5 of those days reaching out to everybody he possibly could, to sit down and share their memories with him for this video. It was amazing at how eager everybody was to be a part of this.

Official Music Video for the debut album from Clawson.

Directed and produced by Tim Drake and Austin Grant
