Charles Thomas Meadows

The introduction of a Sony Betamax Video camera in the Meadows household kicked off a budding career for Charles. Wherever possible he was filming a family expose (much to their frustration) or dodgy dramatic short. His professional life began working in film production where he rose to the position of camera assistant. This led to a stint in advertising with McCann Erickson in London for 2 years as production manager and inserts director on major Coca Cola campaigns. Charles moved back to South Africa and did a spell with the national broadcaster, SABC, as a writer and producer on a number of popular shows. His need to get back behind the camera drove him to create Incubate Productions, a boutique production house and agency dealing in moving pictures. Charles has directed and DoP’d a large number of corporate productions and commercials, including ads for Disney Pixar and Ster-Kinekor. His love of travel has led him to filming productions for clients in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Republic of Congo, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Mozambique and Kenya. His strengths are in his ability to create beautiful visual solutions from brief, to think out of the box and get the best out people.
