Leadership

Charlie Haykel

Partner, Executive Producer

Charlie Haykel leads IndelibleXP’s efforts in expanding its footprint beyond DMP’s legacy of live television events and entertainment programming. Leveraging DMP’s deep experience in creating compelling narratives, Haykel and partners are working with brands, companies, organizations, and causes to bring their messages to life with experiential storytelling. They recently announced a partnership with The Smithsonian to produce “Our Shared Future: Reckoning with Our Racial Past,” a powerful, interactive initiative that uses both live and virtual events to spotlight important perspectives and conversations on race and racism both within the United States and around the world.

In addition, he served as executive producer of the2011-2013 Oscars’ “Red Carpet: Live,” the official Academy Awards pre-show which he and his partner, Juliane Hare, successfully expanded from a 30-minute to 90-minute format. Haykel also produced the NBC series “The Singing Bee” and was producer on the Super Bowl XXXIX and XL Halftime Shows (Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones), as well as the 2004 Democratic Convention. Additional producing credits include “Taking the Stage,” the opening celebration for the Smithsonian’s Museum of African American History & Culture; “Hilarity for Charity” with Seth Rogen for Netflix; and Billboard’s “Women in Music”. Haykel was also on the producing teams for the millennium documentary by Steven Spielberg, “The Unfinished Journey,” and the independent feature “Bad City Blues.”
