Nick Andrews

Nick Andrews is an amateur filmmaker who lives in Helena, Montana.

A senior at Capital High School, Nick formed a production company called Nandrews Productions. He features his work on YouTube, and one of his films has garnered national attention, called My Hands Are Bananas. Reminicent of the playful MTV music videos from the 80's and an SNL "Sprokets" skit, the film is a collage of seemingly unrelated nonsensical sequences, put to a dark German Techno beat. The German accents in the video are also convincing, seeing as the film is made by local teens in Helena, Montana.

In the first year it was on YouTube, My Hands Are Bananas had been viewed over four million times. Over ten thousand viewer comments were left during that time, and it had been marked as a favorite more than 27 thousand times. Nick used several locations around Helena to film the video. According to an Associated Press Syndicated Story, Andrews plans to attend film school in either Bozeman or Los Angeles and says he’d like to make thoughtful comedies.

The story was first published by the Helena Independent Record then other local and regional newspapers, to "The Today Show," and printed in the Chicago Tribune.
