Bio
Behnam Karbassi is an Emmy-winning Executive Producer, Creative Director, and Multi-platform Consultant with production experience across media including live TV, digital content, advertising and marketing, events, and emerging technology.
Behnam is a brand steward, creating noteworthy projects for some of the world’s biggest such as Apple, Netflix, Amazon, Sony, Google, Hyundai, and Toyota. He began his career working with top agencies including Saatchi & Saatchi, learning every aspect of how to effectively market multi-million-dollar brands.
Behnam has always had an eye for innovation – working with director Christopher Nolan and 42Entertainment on the heralded alternate reality game for The Dark Knight, called the “the most viral marketing campaign ever made” by the LA Times. He became VP of Production of Fourth Wall Studios, leading dozens of productions to create original content on ground-breaking storytelling platforms, winning the first Original Interactive Television Programming Emmy-award. He was Executive Producer for Luka Dončić’s production company 77X, creating an Unreal-driven AI digital twin of the basketball star.
Behnam is also a serial entrepreneur, having started his first company graphic designing in his teens, soon an event company, and eventually several production companies creating award-winning short films, music videos, digital content, even earning a coveted No. 1 video ranking on YouTube. He founded No Mimes Media, which over a decade, became one of the leading interactive experience companies in the world.
Behnam has been honored to speak at conferences around the world on producing multi-platform entertainment and harnessing emerging technologies. Aside from music and the outdoors, Behnam’s passion is directing – films, music videos, live events, commercials, and original content.
Currently, Behnam is working in live TV/streaming, producing virtual events for Apple TV+, live concerts for Amazon Music Live, Baby Animal Cam for Netflix, Snapchat’s Partner Summit, Google’s I/O, Disney’s Holiday Special, and The White House’s Leaders’ Summit on Climate for the President of the United States.
