She’ll continue to consult with Funny Or Die on special projects and collaborate with Sunshine Sachs as it also consults with Muñoz and the brand. “I’m sad to see my good friend and valued colleague Carolyn Prousky leaving Funny Or Die, but also incredibly excited for everything this next phase holds for her,” said Funny Or Die CEO Mike Farah. “Over the last fifteen years, she’s been a critical part of our team, from helping to launch ‘The Landlord’ at the beginning to promoting our upcoming film ‘Weird.’ Whether it was viral videos, branded entertainment, television series or movies, she has seamlessly supported and guided Funny Or Die through all our chapters.
I wish her all the best, and I’ll probably call her for help within a week of this announcement.”Prousky began her career at Guttman and Associates and then at Fox.
