John F.X. Anderson
(Co-Founder/Executive Producer)
John co-founded Black Watch Productions in 1989 as a model of what a nimble, creative, versatile production services company should be, with the kind of flexibility to grow and evolve in the ever-changing landscape of film and video production. John has produced thousands of commercials throughout his broadcast production career, starting out at a film studio in New Rochelle that produced spots for kids and toys, continuing to grow into challenging new markets when Black Watch was born.
John’s skills as a multi-talented Producer/Writer have evolved as Black Watch’s production projects have grown to include TV shows, award-winning educational videos, content creation, Cause Marketing pieces, broadcast promos, feature film and documentary projects and branded content. Most recently, John has brought in innovative digital projects and developed teams to work with the frontier technology of immersive LED Walls. Coming out of the recent pandemic, Black Watch has become involved in Virtual Production, as well as multi-camera live streaming events that had to take the place of live conventions and workshops for corporate clientele.
John particularly enjoys traveling to locations all over the country and working with local crews to produce great work, and, as an offshoot of that experience, he spent much of the last year producing live action customer videos all over the United States and overseas without leaving the office-pandemic production at its best! He is a savvy, unflappable producer with many years of experience and resources that he brings to bear on every project.
