Republic, an editorial, and design collective headquartered in Uptown Dallas, has added post-producer Michael Wagner who assumes a leadership role as a sr. producer. He brings a proven track record of coordinating teams of artists and managing complex projects for clients such as Dr Pepper, Ram, Schwab, SEC and Pennzoil.

Carrie Callaway, owner and managing director of Republic, said of Wagner, “He’s got an outstanding reputation in our market, and in the brief period of our discussions, it’s very clear why. Michael’s a perfect complement for our project management team and I have no doubt that our clients and artists will enjoy working with him. I look forward to integrating him into our system and collaborating with him as we continue to grow both our client base and our offerings.”

Wagner was most recently executive producer at charlieuniformtango in Dallas. His tenure there saw him rise swiftly through the ranks, starting out as a jr. producer in 2016 and eventually assuming the role of executive producer only seven years later. He most recently oversaw post for The Home Depot’s large March Madness “Tips from the Tool Shaq” campaign featuring Shaquille O’Neil.

“I am extremely excited to embark on this new chapter of my career with Republic,” said  Wagner. “I have long admired them as a forward thinking creative leader in our market, and in my meetings with the partners, it’s clear to see that they’re focused on growth for not only the brand but also for their individual employees. I’m excited to connect with their editors, designers, and directors, and look forward to expanding my professional skills while enhancing the quality of work in our market.”
