“Channels Changers” Premieres Tonight on WTTW!
BAM Studios is proud to have Sidney Jones Jr. sound design and mix Channels Changers, the groundbreaking documentary by Gypsy Chicago Productions—and now it’s making its TV premiere on WTTW! 📺
This powerful film tells the untold stories of the first Black professionals hired at Chicago’s major ad agencies during the civil rights movement. It highlights how they broke barriers in the ‘60s-‘80s, transforming the industry and shaping the diverse creative landscape we see today.
