About

 

Slapstick Studios was named after the term ‘Slapstick’, a style of humour developed in early 1920’s silent movies. The great Charlie Chaplin was a master of this style of humour and he is still today regarded as one of the greatest comedians to have graced film.

 

 

“Naturalness is the greatest requisite of comedy. It must be real and true to life. I believe in realism absolutely. Real things appeal to the people far quicker than the grotesque. My comedy is actual life, with the slightest twist or exaggeration, you might say, to bring out what it might be under certain circumstances.”

 

(Motion Picture Magazine - March 1915, Charlie Chaplin)
