Jim Cosco
Executive Producer & Director
With almost three decades of experience in the media industry, I am the founder, executive producer, and creative director at Tippingpoint Labs, a content creation and distribution company that specializes in new media. My mission is to craft compelling stories that trigger powerful, emotional responses from the audience, and to help brands and organizations connect with their customers and stakeholders through high-quality, relevant content. I value innovation, collaboration, and authenticity, and I strive to bring diverse perspectives and experiences to my team and my projects.
As the founder and executive producer of Tippingpoint Labs, I am responsible for overseeing all aspects of content production, from ideation and strategy to execution and delivery. I work with a talented team of writers, producers, directors, editors, and designers to create engaging and impactful content for various platforms and channels, including web, social media, podcasts, video, and live events. I’ve also produced and directed a feature length documentary film.
Over the years, I’ve filmed content for MTV, Fox News, Nightline, and The Today Show as well as worked with notables like Leeza Gibbons, Geraldo Rivera, Tim Russert, Aerosmith, and celebrity chef Curtis Stone.
Today I continue to leverage my skills and expertise in new media, web content, and creative direction to advise and mentor other content creators and entrepreneurs in the media space. I am also the founder of Legacy Video Stories, a project that aims to record the stories of everyday seniors for submission to The National Archives.
