Home - About Us

Built by creators. Designed for brands.

Comedy Influence is a boutique content studio founded by Marietta Melrose and Angela Petruzziello — Los Angeles–based actresses, writers, and long-term creative collaborators.

We met in a comedy class and quickly recognized a shared creative instinct and on-camera chemistry. Rather than rushing to market, we spent a year testing and refining our work together through Try Again TV, where our sketches consistently gained traction and demonstrated something essential: audiences respond strongly to us as a unit. One early signal of that momentum came when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson shared one of our sketches on his socials The Rock’s IG 

That foundation shaped how Comedy Influence operates today.

Angela brings extensive experience collaborating with global consumer brands including Mastercard, Olay, Amazon, and DraftKings, alongside a strong writing background that ensures concepts translate into structured, brand-aligned scripts designed to perform across platforms.

Marietta brings a background that bridges traditional media, emerging technology, and performance — with experience in immersive storytelling and international television hosting — allowing Comedy Influence to combine broadcast-level discipline with social-first execution.

Together, we offer brands:

  • A consistent, on-camera creative presence
  • Scripted, performance-led content with strategic intent
  • A streamlined production process from concept to delivery
  • Creative continuity designed for long-term use

At Comedy Influence, we collaborate with a small, curated group of brands to develop ongoing organic content that builds recognition over time. We manage the creative end-to-end — from concept and scripting to performance, production, and delivery — allowing brands to show up consistently without the overhead of agencies or the unpredictability of one-off influencer posts.

Our focus isn’t moments. It’s momentum.
