Biography
Carlyn is a comedy director based in LA. She has directed over 40 sketches at CollegeHumor and Funny or Die, where she honed in on her unique talent for directing performance-focused, cinematic, and often-absurd comedic pieces. Three of her short films have premiered at SXSW — including the award-winning, very stupid short, NICE ASS, and WAFFLE, a horror/comedy about the future of friendship that went on to play over 50 additional festivals and a handful of embarrassing/kind comparisons to Jordan Peele. She’s also a member of the WGA, currently adapting a book into a feature film for Netflix. As a commercial director, Carlyn has worked with brands such as JIF (one of Source Creative's top campaigns of 2020), Lexus, Cheerios, Hasbro, Kroger, Nike, and Annovera, whose spot starring Whitney Cummings earned her a Cannes Lion. She’s represented by Artists First and UTA for film/tv projects.
