Welcome to Rocket Surgery.
Our names are Blaine Kneece and Trevor McMahan. We write and create tv, film and other projects because they matter to us. And hopefully they will to you too.
Below you’ll see some of our latest work. We hope you enjoy as much as we do.

About us.
We met while acting in and directing a Marvel commercial in 2009 and have been avidly writing together ever since.
Trevor writes and directs music videos and commercials around the world, and has been awarded the cfp-e Young Director’s Award, AICP honors, multiple Cannes Gold Lions, and induction into MOMA’s permanent collection.
Blaine, a member of both The Second City and Upright Citizen’s Brigade, has grown a following on the NY comedy scene, which has, in turn, garnered him writing work for numerous comedy series as well as The Andy Kaufman Award.
We’re also very proud to have snuck our Homeless Awesome Dude character on the Jimmy Fallon show.
