Award Winning Comedy Director Lucy Forbes Signs with Curious Film
Curious Film is excited to represent ingenious
director, Lucy Forbes in Australasia. Adding to Curious' already high
calibre roster of film makers.
Based in London, Forbes has
experience in both TV and advertising, regularly directing shows for
Comedy Central, whilst helming smart campaigns for major brands, such as
ASDA, Carphone Warehouse, and Oreos.
Known for her unique, witty perspective and snappy story telling
abilities, Forbes is one of the leading voices of the new generation of
comedy directors in the UK. Most recently she has directed the
critically acclaimed series 'In My Skin'
for BBC1. A darkly comic, coming of age story about a sixteen-year-old
girl whose mother has just been sectioned in a mental health facility.
To deal with reality she tells lies - a lot of lies. It was named
critics' choice in The Observer and The Times.
Says Kate Roydhouse, managing director and executive producer, Curious Film: "Lucy is fearless. Her visual style, clever, witty writing, hints of darkness and boundary-pushing ideas combined are a force to be reckoned with."
Says Forbes: "I see great creative work coming out of the best agencies in Australia and New Zealand, and I want to collaborate with the best creatives around the world."
Accomplishments include, her award winning 'Sniffers' film for Confidante which took home a Cannes Lion, two Clios and a Webby. Forbes' impressive career has also seen her work with high profile international talent such as David Tennant, Mr. T, Kate Moss, Nicole Sherzinger, Katherine Ryan, Doug Stanhope and Robert Webb.
