COMEDY

Kranky (aka Laurence Shanet) has had the honour of dancing with both Britney Spears and Bob Dole, helped teach hundreds

of New York cab drivers how to flip the bird, and been intimate with an 800-pound black bear.
 

He has directed and produced work that you’ve seen on your television, computer, and phone screen. He is a past winner

of the CFP’s Young Director Award at the Cannes International Advertising Festival, was listed among the industry’s

Top 10 “Directors to Watch”, and has had his work placed in the Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection.
 

He also smells great.
