Bang TV adds Christopher Poole to roster
)
Bang TV are always on the lookout for comedy directors but so many of them fall at the first hurdle, making us laugh. Poole raised a few chuckles.
Everybody knows that the best commercials are the funny ones.
Meet Christopher Poole, a director of comedy commercials, TV shows and films. He deals in the off-beat, pitching relatable characters into absurd situations.
He’s directed Emma Thompson, Jennifer Saunders, Russell Howard, and Bill Bailey, and smashed a series of hilarious commercials for PlayStation.
He also has a deft touch with the darker side of comedy, luring Garth Marenghi out of retirement for a Satanic Christmas special and catching the eye of Bang TV's Head of HeadHunting with his deeply disturbing ten minute techno-terror trip Aria.
Poole has the most luxuriant head of hair ever seen outside of a Pantene commercial, and would definitely prefer it if you didn’t call him Chris, Chrissie or Cliff.
