Wayne Alan Harold

Wayne Alan Harold (born November 7 1964) is an underground filmmaker from northeastern Ohio.

Upon graduation from Kent State University in 1988, Harold formed a video production company with high school friend (and fellow KSU graduate) Mark Steven Bosko. The pair soon met "Genuine Nerd" Toby Radloff at the Superman exposition in Cleveland, Ohio and they ended up producing the majority of Radloff's segments for MTV News.

In the early 90s, Harold and Bosko founded Riot Pictures to make low-budget horror films to be released in the growing direct-to-video market. "Killer Nerd" and its sequel, "Bride of Killer Nerd", both starred Radloff as "nerd-gone-mad" Harold Kunkle. The low-budget films have a developed a loyal following due to Radloff's odd screen persona and their "so bad they're good" reputation.

Harold and Bosko's dissolved their filmmaking partnership after the production of 1993's "Girlfriends", a comedy about lesbian serial killers that did not feature Radloff. Wayne and Toby remained close friends.

With the advent of digital video (DV), Harold re-emerged in 2002 with "Townies", a dark comedy about a small town overrun by misfits. Wayne wrote, produced, directed, photographed and edited the entire film. Radloff appeared as a "dumpster-diving" eccentric named Dickie.

Harold was one of the first artists signed to Turner Broadcasting online comedy site, SuperDeluxe.com. With "Genuine Nerd" Toby Radloff, Harold produced segments of "The Wayne and Toby Show" and "Super Deluxe Revue." SuperDeluxe is currently being folded into Turner's AdultSwim.com.

Harold's newest feature is a documentary on acclaimed comics illustrator P. Craig Russell, titled "Sound Into
