About J. Charles Banks
I’m a creative producer/director hybrid with 16 years of experience creating award-winning video content and immersive experiences for over 50 major brands, alongside dozens of agency/media partners, and in collaboration with 100+ artists, celebrities and influencers. My expertise is in “soup to nuts” content development, cultural context and brand integration. It is extremely rare that a producer has extensive experience both on the agency side as well as production in both video and experiential. I consider myself to be a culture maven fueled by curiosity, compassion and the belief that brand stories should matter. I hold an MFA in Creative Producing from Columbia University and my most recent full-time position was as VP, Executive Creative Director for One X Studios.My purpose in life is to make people feel…Seen // Interconnected // BoundlessI tell branded stories that elevate the human experience with cultural nuance, clarity of message and an artistic lens.
