About

Avery Fox
Based in Hudson Valley, NY
Experience 15+ Years
Specialties Documentary · Branded Content · Scripted

I'm Avery Fox, an Archival Producer with over fifteen years of experience sourcing, licensing, and integrating historical media for film, television, and advertising.

I've spent my career working across documentary, scripted and branded content — from leading the archival department at VICE Media to serving as Supervising Archival Producer on projects for Netflix, CNN, Amazon, and others. Every project is different, and I love the detective work of finding the right imagery for the right moment.

I specialize in complex research, fair use, contract negotiation, and post-production deliverables. From early project development to final deliverables I work closely with producers, directors and editors to find and clear the content that the story needs.

Services

What I Do
Archival Research & Licensing

Deep-dive research across archives, libraries, news organizations, and private collections worldwide.

Contract Negotiation

With experience negotiating licensing contracts across projects of all sizes and scopes, I know how to secure the media your project needs while keeping costs under control — from major studios to independent archives.

Fair Use Advisement

I work closely with legal counsel to provide informed guidance on what you can use, how, and when — helping you make confident creative decisions without unnecessary legal exposure or late stage re-edits.

Post Production Support

From paper cut through picture lock, I coordinate archival elements across your post pipeline — managing clearances, deliverables, and last-minute research as the edit evolves.

Team Management & Recruiting

I can assemble and lead a team of researchers tailored to your project’s scale, from a single associate to a full department.

AI-Assisted Research

I incorporate cutting-edge AI tools into my research workflow to dramatically accelerate discovery — finding leads faster and spending more time on the footage that matters.

Work

Selected Credits

A selection of documentary projects spanning network television, streaming, film, and web distribution — covering a wide range of subjects from history and sports to pop culture, politics, and beyond. Each credit represents a distinct research challenge — drawing on news archives, studio libraries, private collections, and international sources to find the imagery that serves the story.
