About Act 5
JIM HOLMES
Beginning my career as an advertising creative and music journalist, I transitioned full-time into content creation for brands and broadcasters in 2008. Since then, I have managed editorial teams, ideated, pitched and overseen delivery of video productions and 360 campaigns for the world's biggest brands and broadcasters: from The BRITs and Glastonbury Festival coverage to a season of segments for Blue Peter, to audience-acclaimed live broadcasts in the worlds of sports and music.
​
With a passion for delivering best-in-class creative campaigns, programmes and strategic content plans - I have been Executive Producer on some of Red Bull's most successful events, films and social campaigns in the last decade; and with 15 years of experience in the industry, I've had the privilege of working with renowned brands and incredibly talented individuals who are an extended part of the Act 5 family.
My mission is to bring your vision to life through creative storytelling, data-driven insights and technical expertise; working closely with clients to ensure strategic success and innovation is at the forefront of every project. From concept development to post-production, I am committed to delivering exceptional work that engages and inspire audiences worldwide.
