Brandon Carmichael

Dallas, Texas USA

Brandon is responsible for evolving and elevating the creative story behind each of our MediaLab projects, leading a team of creative, highly skilled filmmakers, artists, illustrators, and designers. “These stories manifest as cinematic narratives and documentaries, virtual reality environments, VFX, and various 3D animations on a broad range of topics,” he says.

Brandon is inspired by the power of story to connect with and influence people. He continues to be excited about the potential for telling stories in increasingly compelling — and sometimes surprising — ways using technology. “One of the reasons I have worked at Corgan for over 10 years is because we keep finding new methods for telling stories,” Brandon says. “In any given week, we might be designing an immersive experience in a conference show booth or creating an XR virtual environment or filming a live-action series.” With 20 years of experience, he has worked on projects across many sectors and mediums for companies including Fossil, Bulova, Facebook, LAX, and many more. “I am most proud of what all of my projects have in common,” he says, “which is telling a compelling visual story that motivates people.”

Outside of MediaLab, Brandon spends most of his time with his wife and two sons. “The boys and I participate in Trail Life, which means we are camping and learning life skills,” he says. “My wife and I like to travel as well as work around the house.”
