Testimonial
 

"Everyone said how amazing the session was, how it’s rare you get training you can put into effect right now. A creative said that it would change not only his writing but other areas of his work too. The group also didn't feel spoken at or “trained”, more that you were imparting knowledge and information and giving them space to play around with it."

Jodie Toomey, The & Partnership, London

Quick & Funny
A Comedy Writing Workshop for Creatives

The session is composed of analysis of comedy techniques alongside quick fire creative exercises.

​

* Ahead of the session, each participant sends me a link to something quick and funny. These can be anything that is, well, quick and funny. It could be an advert, a TV comedy sketch, a TikTok video, a bit of stand-up, a video of your dog… Then I incorporate a selection into the sessions to illustrate techniques we are working with.

​

From this disparate range of quick and funny videos you we will identify fundamental techniques.

​

For example:

- surprise, set-up/ payoff, misdirection, bathos, false dawns, rule-of-three, dramatic irony.


Using these techniques and more we’ll go through a series of quick fire writing exercises that take you through a sequence of steps including using questions as a springboard to creativity. Your creatives will take away the tools that will allow them to generate comedy ideas on any topic.

​​

Weekdays, 1pm-5pm, £975 (plus travel expenses)

The session can be at your offices, in an external training room or simply in the function room of a local pub.

Django Weisz (Superheroes agency, Amsterdam)

"The sessions with Chris were really inspiring. Chris managed to create a safe setting so people could really engage and participate in the assignments without hesitation. We learned how to break with the usual way of making and doing presentations and received some very good tools to improve the way of presenting. On top of this the sessions were really good for team building."

Victoria Fox, CEO at LIDA (M&C Saatchi)

"At LIDA we have been engaging Chris Head to run his stand-up comedy course. Ten people from across the agency, across a wide range of disciplines and levels sign up. I can honestly say it is a truly brilliant course that I couldn’t recommend highly enough. Its fantastic for the individual - building confidence, self awareness and presentation skills. It's brilliant team building for the team that sign up each year and it is culturally part of our LIDA DNA now. The course culminates in a show. A night the whole agency gets behind and looks forward to. The best value for money training. Chris is simply brilliant.” 

Simon Devereux,
Bank Paribas, Amsterdam

“We are an international team of portfolio managers. For our annual team meeting Chris gave us a day completely filled with funny exercises, good discussions on dos and don'ts when speaking for clients and some nice examples of a few of the best stand-up comedians out there. We really enjoyed the way he taught us how to handle hecklers and the course certainly helped us to get to know a lot more about each other. Therefore the team building targets were certainly met and we will also be much better equipped the next time we'll be presenting in front of our clients.”
