FRANK CHI

Frank's work as a strategist and producer has been influential to how the public views the major cultural and policy issues we face every day. Whether it’s for Senator Elizabeth Warren, MoveOn, Indivisible, Color of Change, Women’s March, or Be A Hero, Frank has designed and executed campaigns for today’s most impactful groups and organizers. He has been profiled in Communication Arts and NBC News, and has written for The Washington Post and The Boston Globe. He is a frequent lecturer on topics ranging from political storytelling, filmmaking, narrative development and social justice at the Ohio State University, University of Pennsylvania, Apple’s Storymakers Festival, among others. Frank’s series, “Langston Hughes in Our Time” – three short films bringing to life Hughes’s poems “Let America Be America Again”, “Democracy” and “Kids Who Die” – was called “the perfect Black Lives Matter tribute” by HuffPost. His film collaborations with The Smithsonian remain the institution’s most popular videos on social media. His Smithsonian films on Islamophobia (“Letters from Camp”) and immigration (“America is in the Heart”) use history and love to respond to the politics of hate, and have gained recognition from The Los Angeles Times, MSNBC, and ABC News as films that reflect “a heartbreaking resonance of past and present.”  Frank was the design lead on the team that created the popular “Notorious RBG” campaign honoring Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg; and was featured in The New York Times best-selling book “Notorious RBG: the Life & Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg” and the Oscar-nominated film “RBG.” He has also led digital creative campaigns for over a dozen progressive think tanks and five U.S. senators - most notably Senator Elizabeth Warren - a frequent creative partner since 2009.  In his work as a filmmaker, activist and consultant - Frank brings his expertise and passion to the Green House, Culture House’s consultancy practice, to continue helping to shape the media narrative with a productive and future focused lens.
