JC Gallegos builds companies at the intersection of AI, creativity and culture. He is the founder and CEO of PUNX, an AI-native creative agency and production studio based in Makati, working with global FMCG, fintech, telecom and entertainment brands - among them Procter & Gamble, San Miguel, Petron and JTI - across APAC, North America, Europe, and the Middle East & Africa.
He built PUNX around a specific argument about where creative work breaks: "We've never seen a lack of creative ambition. What we're seeing is a system that can't keep up with how marketing actually works now. The tools will keep changing, but the system you build around them is what determines scale."
He writes on AI video production, creative strategy, and how brands build production systems that hold up at scale.

Events Search “best events agency Philippines” and you get lists. Lists are easy to publish and hard to use, because the agency that suits a 3,000-person conference is rarely the one you want for a mall activation. This is the other thing — the questions that actually sort a shortlist, from a team that runs… Continue reading How to Choose the Best Events Agency in the Philippines
Regulated Categories If your category is regulated, “can AI make this?” is the wrong question. It can. The question your legal team will actually ask is different: can you prove how it was made, and can you prove it a year from now? That is a production question, not a technology one. This page is… Continue reading Brand-Safe AI Production for Regulated Industries
The Comparison AI production and traditional production differ on four things: cost, timeline, how many versions you can make, and who owns the result. AI wins decisively on the first three.

The Pipeline Most explanations of AI video production describe the tools. That is the least interesting part. What decides whether the work is usable is the workflow around the tools — where a human intervenes, what gets approved before anything is generated, and who signs off before it reaches a client. This is how the… Continue reading The AI Video Workflow, Stage by Stage
Why Brands Switch The marketing world is changing faster than the old creative model can handle. Brands need fresh, relevant content across Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and email — daily, not quarterly.
