MATT CARTER JOINS ANOTHER FILM COMPANY
12 September 2023

Matt Carter, who has joined the roster at Another Film Company, is highly skilled at coaxing excellent comedy performances from his actors. Carter is a graduate of the excellent 'director factory' a 4 Creative, having joined Channel 4 in 2000 and learning his craft in a variety of roles, before getting the opportunity to direct.

Matt Carter's most recent work showcases his ability to maximise the humour in amusing scripts, as in this Irish commercial for Allianz which depicts the series of unfortunate events which might have befallen a woman if she wasn't attached to the advertised car recovery insurance service.


He has executed some lovely bits of slapstick, but it's very warmly done, and this ensures we are laughing with rather than at the unfortunate young woman at the centre of a very bad day.

In the Barclaycard ad below there is less humour to work with, but Carter ensures the audience's attention is fully focused on the key proposition, and delivers a charming 'old school' commercial.


You can admire more of Matt Carter's work at Another Film Company's website, and then get in touch with Debby Eden to discuss his availability by calling her on 07956 847 592 or via email using debby@anotherfilmcompany.com.
