Vern Oakley, Founder, CEO, and Creative Director of Tribe Pictures

Vern’s clients include top corporations and organizations across sectors, including world leaders in technology, life sciences and pharmaceuticals, consumer products, and finance. Tribe has produced and directed short and long form films in executive leadership, marketing and branding, investor relations, fundraising, and human resources.
The company’s goal is to “make films that humanize the most successful companies, institutions and leaders in the world.”
Tribe’s films have launched some of the world's largest spin-offs, repositioned major corporations and government agencies, anchored sales campaigns, and served as corporate mission statements. Their films have won more than 400 distinguished industry awards.
