Organic Polyester Productions (OPP), founded by Everett Kelsey in 2004, represents the creative bedrock from which BLKMKT Media would later emerge. Born from the traditional Hollywood studio system, OPP was Kelsey's first major venture as a filmmaker—a boutique production company dedicated to atmospheric, character-driven, and psychologically layered storytelling. It served as both a launchpad for his directing debut and a vehicle through which Kelsey navigated the industry as a writer, actor, and producer with a distinct auteur voice.
Over the years, Organic Polyester established a reputation for its genre-blending scripts and its embrace of marginalized perspectives, artistic risk, and narrative complexity. It was a platform for building craft and credibility, but more importantly, for developing a storytelling ethos centered on truth, contradiction, and cultural introspection.
In 2020, that ethos evolved into BLKMKT Media, a media-tech consultancy and storytelling company born in response to the urgent need for ethical storytelling and representation in an increasingly algorithmic, AI-driven world. Where Organic Polyester was rooted in traditional filmmaking, BLKMKT Media was founded to reimagine storytelling for the streaming, data, and artificial intelligence age.
Their relationship is symbiotic:
Everett Kelsey’s role as an artist “on loan” from Organic Polyester into BLKMKT Media symbolizes the fusion of Hollywood craft with technological mission. Rather than abandoning traditional media, Kelsey extends it—bringing the rigor, authenticity, and emotional intelligence honed through Organic Polyester into BLKMKT Media’s AI and platform-driven environments.
This fusion allows BLKMKT Media to speak fluently across industries: with filmmakers and technologists, with policy makers and streaming platforms. It ensures that, even as the tools evolve, the core commitment to integrity in storytelling remains intact.
In short, Organic Polyester Productions is the artistic soul from which BLKMKT Media draws its creative DNA. Together, they embody a new paradigm—where classic Hollywood storytelling meets the ethical frontier of AI-powered media.
“Deep within uncomfortable consciousness where man struggles in life’s tangled symbiotic fibers of ambiguity, connecting: Creation with Destruction- Reason with Insanity- Love with Hate- Mortality with Spirituality, and that which is Possible with the Impossible- ORGANIC POLYESTER will explore our dependency to co-exist, and how our defining differences are in an obscure state of continuous change, blurring one’s once clear perception. The subtle, impulsive, seductive, pressure to cast judgment- to turn a blind eye or deaf ear on the purity of the moment is a constant. Which is why, in this space in time… in this eternal moment… beauty in ugliness, and the ugliness in beauty… will be exposed.” (Everett Kelsey)
