James Wilson
Director
Based in Los Angeles, James Tate Wilson is an award-winning director whose work blends the mythic spirit of the American West with modern cinematic realism. He grew up around horses and open country, and when he wasn’t outside, he was watching classic black-and-white films with his father. Those early experiences shaped a deep respect for character and place—elements that continue to define his storytelling. Wilson’s work draws from the golden age of Hollywood, reimagined through a contemporary lens and rooted in timeless themes. With a background in screenwriting, he brings a grounded narrative sensibility to both branded and narrative work.
