    Leading West Coast Rep Firm Unveils One of Ones, Expands Team and Talent Offering

    Monday, December 8, 2025
    One of Ones - Ezra Burke & Sylvia Brach

    With decades of experience working across multiple facets of filmmaking and talent management, Ezra Burke has arrived at one universal truth: it’s human creativity that makes a film unforgettable. And as a pledge to the entire community of filmmakers everywhere, West Coast Rep firm Content Chemics becomes One of Ones. The re-brand for the long-standing firm has been a year in the making, sparked by the addition of Sales Rep Sylvia Brach. “When Sylvia and I first met we spent hours sharing stories of our journeys and what inspired us. Our paths into advertising were very different; mine via the feature film world while Sylvia’s came via the agency side. But what we shared was a passionate commitment to working with people who bring out the best in us.” Energized by this commitment to the creative community, One of Ones have expanded their roster with the addition of four new companies over the past year. Earlier this year Ezra and team re-united with SKUNK founder Matt Factor and director John Hillcoat, followed by the signing of Field Day Sound, the 2025 AdAge Music & Sound Company of the Year. Premiere VFX studio Selected Works joined the roster over the summer. And most recently Ezra and Sylvia have brought on Group Thrpy, the production company founded by Shelby Ross and director Harrison Boyce. www.oneofones.com Read More
