Phylon Media was founded in Manhattan in 1999 during one of the most transformative periods in media history.
Cable television was rapidly expanding, the internet was beginning to reshape communication, and audiences were consuming content in entirely new ways.
Our founders experienced that transformation firsthand while working at NBC, CNBC, and as members of the launch team that helped introduce MSNBC to the world.
Watching television and the internet converge inspired a simple realization:
Platforms will always change.
Storytelling never will.
That realization became Phylon Media.
A phylon represents different species sharing the same origin.
To us, television, streaming, websites, podcasts, social media, AI, and mobile applications are simply different species of the same idea:
Human beings telling stories.
No matter how technology evolves, audiences will always seek information, entertainment, inspiration, and authentic connection.
That belief has guided every project we've produced for more than 25 years.
Phylon Media has experienced—and adapted to—every major shift in modern media.
The Television Era
Producing programming, promos, documentaries, entertainment specials, news content, and branded campaigns for national television.
The Internet Revolution
Helping companies create digital-first video content as websites became global destinations.
The Social Media Explosion
Developing content designed specifically for online audiences, short-form storytelling, and branded engagement.
The AI & Mobile Era
Today we are building applications, interactive experiences, and AI-powered products that educate, improve wellness, and redefine how audiences consume content.
Rather than chasing trends, we've evolved alongside them.
Over the years our work has appeared across some of the world's most recognizable media brands.
We've produced programming for NBC News, MSNBC, BET, CBS News, MTV, MSG Networks, Fuse, Bravo, Complex, A360 Media, Us Weekly, In Touch Weekly, TIDAL, and numerous agencies, corporations, and production companies.
Our projects have ranged from entertainment and documentaries to investigative journalism, branded content, social advocacy, and cultural storytelling.
Along the way we've had the privilege of working with artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, public figures, and cultural icons including Jay-Z, MF DOOM, Michael Jackson, Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Eminem, and many others.
Every project reinforces one belief:
Great stories create lasting impact.
Innovation has always been part of our DNA.
Our latest venture, Keep It 100, extends our storytelling beyond television into technology, combining AI, nutrition, wellness, and longevity education into one consumer platform inspired by Ruth Bell, who lived independently beyond 100 years of age.
As we continue developing new applications, educational platforms, documentaries, and digital experiences, our mission remains unchanged:
To create content that informs.
Content that inspires.
Content that lasts.
Because while media continues to evolve, great storytelling never goes out of style.
At Phylon Media, we not only provide traditional storytelling, but we also have extensive experience delivering state-of-the-art 2D and 3D motion graphics, as well as motion capture animation and compositing.
ME: What does the MF stand for?
DOOM: What do you think it stands for?
(pondering silence)
DOOM: That's what it stands for.
At Phylon Media, we have done stories on everyone ranging from Jay-Z to Eminem to Kanye West. But by far, the most riveting interview that you never saw took place with the Super Villain, MF DOOM.
It was an honor to be a part of the Tidal produced content for Jay-Z.
