Quinton Macari III

Quinton Macari, co-founder of Studio Nine 13, is a media veteran with more than twenty years of experience in film, television, and video production. Better known by his Bond-like nickname, Q has built a career defined by storytelling, innovation, and hands-on creative leadership.

Q discovered his love for filmmaking as a high school student in a mass communications class, and that early spark has since evolved into a career spanning feature films, network television, and national brand campaigns. He has produced three feature films — The Summoning, The Sacred, and the critically acclaimed A Time for Every Purpose, which he and his wife (and business partner), Kristin, produced together. He also served as First Assistant Director on The Pistol, an official selection at the Cannes Film Festival in 2019. Most recently, Q produced The Heart Brake, starring Beverly D’Angelo, where Studio Nine 13 led all post-production.

In addition to his work in film, Q has directed and produced for television, including The Daily Buzz and the first season of Entrepreneur magazine’s TV show. Through Studio Nine 13, he has also led creative direction for national campaigns with major brands like Coca-Cola, Chick-fil-A, and U.S. Bank — including the Small Business, Big Ambition campaign, which captured the stories of 15 inspiring entrepreneurs across the country.

With a Master’s in Entertainment Business and a deep passion for storytelling, Q continues to bridge the worlds of commercial media and film production. Whether he’s behind the camera, in the editing suite, or leading a full-scale production, Quinton brings precision, creativity, and vision to every project.
