Bill Marpet, Emmy-winning director and cinematographer, founded B Productions in 1983. His background included creating groundbreaking documentaries (“The Running of the Bulls ” and “The West Bank – Who’s Bank”), covering the seminal punk rock scene of the East Village, and collaborating with video pioneer Nam June Paik and dancers Twyla Tharp and Merce Cunningham.

As his reputation as a filmmaker spread, Bill began his long association with the leading designers in New York – Bill Blass, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan, Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Betsey Johnson and many more. Today, the one-man-one camera shop that once covered a handful of designer shows has emerged as the leading producer of fashion video in New York. Each Fashion Week, B videotapes and live streams over 150 shows and presentations.
