Chris Mix’s Work
Welcome to the world of Chris Mix, where creativity meets excellence in entertainment production, brand building, communications, and content creation.
Chris is an Emmy, ABA, and SABRE award-winning executive producer and creative director in the entertainment industry. Born into a family-owned entertainment production company, he’s spent his life curating a deep knowledge of theater, music, special events, concerts, and television production. He manages teams of producers, editors, graphic artists, suppliers, and production crews to create broadcasts and content-based emotive experiences for any audience size in biotech and banking industries, and up to 20 million for CBS Evening News, CBS This Morning, 60 Minutes, as well as various Presidential Debates.
In live entertainment, he’s worked with VIP Event teams for Live Nation servicing the U2 360 and Roger Waters The Wall Live tours, Red Dress Fashion Shows, and CMT Music Awards. He’s also worked as a liaison with entertainment industry leaders such as Disney Theatrical Productions, Dodger Theatrical Productions, Broadway Across America, Live Nation, Really Useful Group, and AEG. In addition to project management, including budgets and production timelines, he has experience negotiating entertainment contracts in the U.S., Europe, South America, and Asia.
Always a team player, his communication is fluid, and his attention to detail is laser-sharp. The most common word he speaks is “yes” as he rapidly problem-solves, innovates, and formulates action plans to produce excellent experiences, whether live or digital. He effortlessly splits his attention between the status of multiple projects, tracking conversations, reviewing, and making changes up to the last possible moment, ensuring the highest quality in complex and fast-paced entertainment environments.
Below are only some of the associated employers and projects which Chris has worked with in the past. For reasons of client confidentiality, examples of his work are difficult to provide, however - you will find a summary of projects and examples of the top-tier work produced in these spaces.
