Branded Stories: Imagining a Better Way for brands and creatives with Zachary Slingsby

Monday Aug 08, 2022

Is branded entertainment the last, best hope of the artist?

Zachary Slingsby is a writer, short film creator, and founder of

Human Factor Media, an award-winning branded storytelling

company that has worked with leading brands and publishers to

create videos people actually want to watch.

Zack graduated from Fordham University, received his MFA from

the New School and has published in over a dozen creative and

literary story great is the same that makes for a great video.

His company is based between Nashville, where he lives, and New York City, collaborating with brands to create stories and films instead of ads and interruptions.
