Experiencing Interruptions?

Project 8=D

8=D isn’t your ordinary comedy sketch show. Its a front-row seat in the minds of six best friends that are a little sick and twisted in their own way.

8=D gives you the best of all three worlds. A three-part linear comedy sketch intertwined with outrageous stunts and hilarious pranks.

Each episode contains a celebrity cameo, where that celebrity is thrown into something they might not be comfortable with.
Do you have ADHD? NO PROBLEM! So do we!

Each episode does not align with the previous one, so there is no need to watch in order.

Director Biography - Vinny Imperati

Vinny Imperati, also known as "Skinny Vinny" was born in Middle Town, CT October 17, 1987. The first taste of any production work came at the age of 13 when he first fell in love with the video camera. He produced, filmed and edited his first project "Momentum", which was a 23 minute skate boarding video that consisted of a few of his friends he grew up with. "Momentum" premiered on his local television station and also won him a multimedia award while being a sophomore in high school. Growing up his inspirations were "Jackass", "CKY", "Big Brother Magazine", and looked up to Bam Margera, Steve O, Spike Jones, Rick Kosick, and Jonny Knoxville. In his late teens he fell in to the world of alcohol and drugs and his passion and love for film and production slowly faded away. By the time he turned 25 years old he was fully addicted to heroine and cocaine, and was homeless from the ages of 26-29 and the dream of moving to Hollywood no longer existed. October of 2017 Vinny found his way to Los Angeles, CA for the attempt of getting sober but just found himself living on the streets of downtown Los Angeles with no hope of ever finding sobriety. Going in and out of treatment centers with no luck, he found himself giving up. February 2018 his ended up in a sober Living in Culver City Los Angeles called "Design for Recovery". There is where he found a glimmer of hope, and first met friend/co-star Zach Holmes. Zach invited Vinny to help film a video for Zach's social media, then is when Zach noticed that Vinny had experience behind the camera. Fast forward almost five years, and almost five years of full sobriety, Vinny and Zach have gone on to work and become close friends with the very people they looked up to as kids. Vinny has worked along side, Bam Margera, Steve O, and many more, and has been involved in projects in front of the camera such as, "Your Pranks our Show" Ft Vinny and Zach, Youtube sensation "Send it City" "What the Fudge Podcast" Starring Zach and Vinny and "Whacked out Sports". Vinny has also made cameos in music videos for Musician Chad Tepper. January 2023 Vinny was brought on as one of the Co-Hosts of Steve O's "Wildride Podcast" and has appeared in numerous videos posted by Steve-O.

Director Statement

As someone who has lived on the edges of society, I’ve seen both the darkness of addiction and the light that comes with finding redemption. My journey—from homelessness and drug addiction to creating viral videos, a TV show, and a successful podcast alongside Steve-O—has shaped the way I tell stories.

I direct with one goal in mind: to entertain unapologetically and authentically. I’m not afraid to go to extremes—whether it’s setting myself on fire, making a fool of myself, or pushing boundaries—because I know firsthand the power of raw, unfiltered creativity to connect with people. I believe in creating work that speaks to the underdogs, the outcasts, and the dreamers—those who refuse to live life confined to the expectations of a 9-5 existence.

This project is a reflection of that mindset: bold, unexpected, and driven by a relentless desire to turn life’s struggles into stories worth telling.
