Bianco Productions is a Chicago-based creative production company founded by husband-and-wife team David and Jennifer Bianco. With over two decades of international experience across film, television, theater, and education, Bianco Productions creates authentic, story-driven content that elevates small businesses, nonprofit organizations, and artists. From branded commercial videos and business spotlights to narrative films and actor development, the Biancos specialize in helping others tell their stories with clarity and heart.

David, a Michigan native, holds a BFA in Musical Theatre from Western Michigan University and an MFA in Acting and Directing from the University of Missouri–Kansas City. Jennifer, a Filipino American from the northern suburbs of Chicago earned her BA in Theatre from Hope College. Together they launched their creative careers in New York City, where they acted in theater productions, worked as street performers, and guest lectured at the School of Visual Arts - where they first began learning the language of film. As founding members of Dangerous Ground Productions, they helped mount immersive and experimental performances while deepening their passion for collaborative storytelling.

Their journey took them across the globe. In the Philippines, they worked extensively in film, stage, and television. Both appeared in major films such as Heneral Luna, Quezon’s Game, and Hello Forever, and starred in the international musical TV series The Kitchen Musical (The Boston). On stage, they acted in productions of Venus in Fur, Grease, Next Fall, and Boeing Boeing. During that time, David also served as the Marketing Director for Repertory Philippines, the country’s oldest English-speaking theater company. He spearheaded marketing campaigns and produced commercials that helped revitalize audience engagement with the company’s theatrical offerings.

While based in Asia, they also spent several months in London, where David originated the title role of Marco Polo: The Untold Love Story, a new musical in development. They then traveled to Singapore, where they helped develop and perform in Singapura: The Musical, with David appearing in a featured role.

In Nanjing, China, David and Jennifer co-founded International Spice, an intercultural theater company that produced original stage works, offered acting workshops, and created short films. They also worked with schools across the region to develop theater programs for young students, further cementing their commitment to arts education and community engagement.

After returning to the U.S., the Biancos settled in Libertyville, Illinois, in the northern suburbs of Chicago. In 2021, they founded Bianco Productions, beginning with actor mentorship programs, demo reel production, and on-camera training. Their work quickly expanded into creating high-quality visual content for small businesses, nonprofits, and mission-driven entrepreneurs - including commercials, promotional videos, travel content, and mini-documentaries.

With experience in over 80 commercial productions as professional actors and producers, David and Jennifer bring a performer’s eye and a storyteller’s heart to everything they produce. Their global perspective, combined with a deep understanding of local community, allows them to build authentic connections through film.

When she’s not producing with Bianco Productions, Jennifer serves families as a birth doula, videographer, and photographer through her company, A Joyful Blessing Birth Services. Her deep love of storytelling naturally led her to capturing the raw, sacred beauty of birth through filmmaking. By combining her skills as a doula with her passion for visual storytelling, Jennifer creates powerful, emotional birth films that honor the strength and spirit of each family’s journey.

Jennifer and David are the grateful parents of four sons who have deeply shaped their own lives and purpose. They remain grounded in their faith and give thanks to God for the journey they are on - both personally and professionally.

At its core, Bianco Productions is a creative company rooted in service. It exists to amplify real voices, honor personal and collective narratives, and collaborate with clients who are ready to make a lasting impact through the power of visual storytelling.
