Production Designer Charles Infante’s work has garnered awards as well as critical acclaim over his almost twenty years in the world of commercials, music videos and film. A native Angelino, Infante refined his skills at Art Center College of Design before jumping into the world of Production Design.
His commercials include campaigns for high-profile global brands such as Nike, L’Oreal, Microsoft, Heineken, and Lexus. His music videos cross musical genres from Lady Gaga, Jay Z, Madonna, Mick Jagger and Justin Timberlake, to name just a few of the many artists he has worked with, some of which, including the MTV and Grammy Award winning video’s for Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” and Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood”, have become global sensations.
Working closely and understanding the unique personal relationship Production Designers have with Directors, Producers and Production Companies, Infante adeptly flows from ground-up construction of large scale sets to location dressing and decoration. He prides himself on his ability to design each visual project with a very high level of attention to detail while respecting the budget to accomplish the director’s vision.
