Thomas Fanning

Thomas Fanning’s been around the block more than a few times—try over 25 years deep in the trenches of film, TV, music, real estate, and tech. The guy basically eats creativity for breakfast and chases it with a shot of business savvy. Before his current run of film and TV projects (which, let’s be real, everyone’s paying attention to), Thomas churned out hundreds of music videos—yeah, for heavyweights like Beyoncé and The Rolling Stones. Not to mention, he’s worked with the type of ad agencies that have their own zip codes—BBDO, Leo Burnett, Ogilvy & Mather—so he’s no stranger to big-league campaigns or the pressure that comes with them. But he doesn’t stop at just making things look good. Thomas co-helms Cinematic Venture Partners, a firm that isn’t just talking about AI and machine learning—they’re using it. These folks dig through film investments, sniffing out the ones with real potential, all powered by tech that sees past the hype. It’s not just about rolling the dice; it’s about stacking the odds in their favor with some next-gen brainpower. Bottom line: Thomas Fanning isn’t just riding trends, he’s out here building them, one project, one partnership, one calculated risk at a time. Kind of wild, honestly—some people just keep moving the finish line.
